Glass Ball as Bullet Solubility System: Buckminsterfullerene with 1-Bromo-2-methylnaphthalene
Components:
   (1) Buckminsterfullerene; C60; [99685-96-8]  NIST Chemistry WebBook for detail
   (2) 1-Bromo-2-methylnaphthalene; C11H9Br; [2586-62-1]  NIST Chemistry WebBook for detail
Original Measurements:
   Scrivens, W.A.; Tour, J.M., J. Chem. Soc., Chem. Commun. 1993, 1207-1209.

 Variables:
   Temperature = Circa 295 K (Ambient Room)

 Prepared By:
   W. E. Acree, Jr.

 Experimental Data:   (Notes on the Nomenclature)
  
t/°CConcentration c1 [mol dm**-3]
224.83 x 10-2
 Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   Analytical balance and centrifuge. Excess solute and solvent allowed to equilibrate in a room temperature bath for 30 minutes. Solution centrifuged for about 5 minutes and filtered through a 0.45 mum HPLC syringe filtered. Three 1.0 mls were removed and  placed in tared vials, which were then placed in a heated oil bath to facilitate solvent evaporation. Concentrations determined gravimetrically from the weight of the solid residue.

 Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Purity and chemical source were not given in the paper.
   (2) Purity and chemical source were not given in the paper.

 Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: c1: ± 0.0007 mol dm–3.
   Temperature: T/K: ± 3 (Compiler).
