The 1-chloro-2-methylpropane (1) and water (2) binary system is treated in two parts; part 1 is 1-chloro-2-methylpropane (1) in water (2) and part 2 is water (2) in 1-chloro-2-methylpropane (1).
Part 1. The solubility of 1-chloro-2-methylpropane (1) in water (2) has been studied by two work groups with serious discrepancies. The value of Fühner1 is an order of magnitude lower than that of Mackay et al.2 The data are in very poor agreement and in the absence of other independent studies, it is not possible to determine which value is more reliable. Further studies will be necessary before even tentative values can be prescribed. All the available data for the solubility of 1-chloro-2-methylpropane (1) in water (2) in weight percent and mole fraction are summarized in Table 25.
Part 2. Only the value of Mackay et al.2 is available for the solubility of water (2) in 1-chloro-2-methylpropane (1) at 298.15 K, and so no critical evaluation is possible. Further studies are required before any value can be recommended.
