[edit] structural formula

I would like to mention that already Cullen and Reimer in their comprehensive review on Arsenic Speciation in the environment (Chem. Rev. 1989, 89,713-764) mention that the structural formula of Salvarsan as represented with a double bound was incorrect and cite for this statement two articles from 1977 and 1979: Sarquis, M. J. Chem. Edu. 1979, 56, 815 Levinson, A. S. J. chem. Educ. 1977, 54, 98

therefore the statement that the true structure of this substance was only found in 2005 is not correct, at least not by itself, though of course it is possible that is was only in 2005 that this was proved.

tumb shows the structure of salfarsan as 6 membered ring and this is printed way before 2005.--Stone 16:29, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
