Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   The determination of the solubility of water in 1,1,2,3,4,4-hexachloro-1,3-butadiene was based on the infrared spectroscopic method. A UR-20 spectrophotometer was used with 2-cm cuvettes and the windows made of KBr. The spectra were recorded at 3600-810 cm^-1, and the absorbance at 3702 cm^-1 was found by the baseline method. Standard mixtures of 1,1,2,3,4,4-hexachloro-1,3-butadiene and water were used for the calibration graphs. The results obtained were compared with the measurements made by the methods of cloud point¹ and a Karl Fischer titration.

Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Distilled.
   (2) Synthesized by the authors, distilled, washed with HClSO₃ and water, and distilled again. Dried with CaCl₂ and P₂O₅ before use.
