Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   The determination of the solubility was based upon volumetric principles applied to the measurement of excess solute in a calibrated apparatus as described by Rex (1).

Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Prepared by chlorination of benzene using iodine as catalyst. The preparate was recrystalized several times in ethanol before use, m.p. = 52.7°C.
   (2) Distilled.

Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: ±10% (compiler).
   Temperature: ± 1 K. (compiler).
