I want to know the answer to the following question:
What compound was discovered to induce sleep?
All the background I'm provided with is that "In 1903 Hermann Emil Fischer and Joseph von Mering disclosed their discovery that diethylbarbituric acid, formed from the reaction of diethylmalonic acid, phosphorus oxychloride and urea, induces sleep in dogs.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
