Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   The solubility versus temperature measurements were made by the so called synthetic method which involved the mixing of known masses of solute and solvent and the testing of miscibility with temperature. A bracketing procedure was applied. In this method, two adjustable thermostats, one above and the other below the solubility temperature, were used. The contents of sample tubes in the two thermostat baths were observed to maintain one homogeneous and the other heterogeneous as the temperature interval between the two thermostats was reduced by successive steps.

Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Synthesized from 1-chloro-3-nitrobenzene by reduction and diazotisation. Melting point 32.5°C.
   (2) No specifications given.
