Definition
A hypothetical or archaic chemical compound related to ether; a name sometimes applied to various ether-like substances.
Etymology
From 'ether' plus the chemical suffix '-in' (used to name organic compounds and bases). An older or specialized term from 19th-century chemistry.
Kelly Says
Old chemistry texts are full of '-in' compounds that have been renamed or forgotten—'etherin' is like a ghost word, a name given to something scientists thought important at the time but later superseded.
