Ever thought of Mercurous Nitrite.
 Acharya Prafulla Chandra Ray experimented on it and gave various facts about this compound.                        
 He had established Bengal Chemical and Pharmaceutical Works at the of Partition of Bengal.
 He was born on August 2, 1861 in the village Raruli-Katipara in Khulna District(now in Bagladesh) and died on June 16, 1944. He is the author of  "A History of Hindu Chemistry from the Earliest Times to the Sixteenth Century" (1902).P. C. Ray developed his interest in science after reading the autobiography of Benjamin Frankling and his famous ‘kite experiment’.He also worked with gold,platinum,iridium etc with mercaptyl radicals and organic sulphides.
