Methodology:
The synthetic method was used. Observations were made after vigorous shaking in glass-stoppered tubes (15 mL capacity) immersed in water baths in large Dewar flasks. Temperature was adjusted by adding small amounts of cooler or warmer water. Filling started with 5 mL of one reagent followed by small additions of the other two, usually alternately, to maintain a trace of lower or upper layer, until the composition of a plait point was reached or the tube was full (see Tables 1 and 2).
Sample Information:
- Eastman Kodak Co., distilled with 30 cm column with reflux; BP = 114-115°C; MP = -78°C; $n_{D}^{20}$ = 1.3920, $\rho^{20} = \pu{1046.9 g L-1}$.
- Purified by crystallization; MP = -13.3°C; $n_{D}^{20}$ = 1.4315, $\rho^{25} = \pu{1110.1 g L-1}$.
- Purified by crystallization; MP = 6.8°C; $n_{D}^{20}$ = 1.4372, $\rho^{20} = \pu{831.8 g L-1}$.
