456but the following year he considered that his products were oximino compounds (180,181). Historically, Koreff (100) is credited with the preparation of the same substance by the oxidation of a dioxime, although Koreff acknowledged that H. Schmid described the compound to him and Ilinski (90) reported its preparation in the same year. Although no name was proposed for their compounds, they did suggest that the oxidation product of /3-naphthoquinone dioxime, CioH6(=NOH)2, had the same properties as the substance obtained by oxidizing phenylglyoxime and that the compound was not a dinitroso compound but of the type later to be called glyoxime peroxide (11). At very nearly the same time that Holleman (84) proposed the name "dinitrosoacyl" for the product that he obtained by nitrating acetophenone, Beckmann (28) proposed that his product from the nitration of benzil dioxime be called azodibenzenyl hyper oxide, and Scholl (187) gave the name "benzildioxime super oxide" to the product that he obtained from benzaldoxime.Angelí (11) then repeated the work of Tonnies and Beckmann and suggested the name "glyoxime peroxide." All of these authors were referring to the same structure in an aliphatic series of compounds, viz.:
