Experimental Data:   (Notes on the Nomenclature)
  
t/°CConcentration c1 [mol dm**-3]
25.00.2561
Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   Constant temperature bath, rotator, thermometer, and a gas-liquid chromatograph with flame ionization detection. Excess solute and solvent placed in glass vials and allowed to equilibrate for 24 hours with gentle agitation and left to settle for 48 hours before analysis. Aliquots of saturated solutions were removed and concentrations  were determined using a gas-liquid chromatograph equipped with flame ionization detector and on 10 % SE30 ultraphase column.

Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Highest available commercial purity, specific chemical supplier not given, was used as received.
   (2) 99+ %, Aldrich Chemical Company, Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA, was used as received.

Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: c1: ± 3 % (relative error, compiler).
   Temperature: T/K: precision ± 0.1 (compiler).
