 Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   Cooling curves were determined using a freezing point apparatus (Precision Scientific Co.), equipped with a Leeds & Northrup Mueller bridge, and a Pt resistance thermometer. Minimum sample size was 50 mL. A solution of (1) and (2) was prepared and its cooling curve recorded, then a known amount of (1) was added, and a second cooling curve taken.

 Source and Purity of Materials:
