Dear Dr. Heyroth:
I should like to inquire whether you have had a chance to do any work with our APR-12S, methyl cyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl. According to our records, if I am correct, you have given us a preliminary opinion regarding the toxicity of the related compound, APR-122, the parent methyl cyclopentadienyl manganese tricarbonyl, but we have heard nothing from you regarding the APR-123 since sending you a sample on April 27, 1955.
Perhaps you have sent us a letter on this compound and I have missed it in perusing our files.
Sincerely yours,
/s/ Hymin Shapiro
