 Method/Apparatus/Procedure:
   The experimental prcedure was probably similar to that reported in (1). Excess solid was shaken with water at 25 ± 0.1°C for 24 hours. The saturated solution was then filtered at thermostat temperature and, with appropriate dilution, analyzed spectrophotometically. Linear calibration graphs of absorbance at a wave length of maximum absorbance of the neutral phenols against concentration confirmed the applicability of the Beer-Lambert law for the analysis.

 Source and Purity of Materials:
   (1) Commercial product (manufacturer not reported), recrystallized to a constant melting point.
   (2) Source and purity not specified.

 Estimated Errors:
   Solubility: ±2% (standard deviation of the average value from five determinations as reported by the authors).
