urements was 0.1 lower than the value found by several investigators from measurements in solution, although the solvent effect, which, in the case of chlorobenzene, lowers the solution value to such an extent that the gas value is 10% higher than that measured in solution, should lead to a similarly lower value for o-dichlorobenzene.9 Since addition of 10% to the solution value, 2.27, for o-dichlorobenzene gives a value, 2.50, practically identical with the newly determined gas value, 2.51, in Table II, it is evident that there is no anomaly in the solvent effect for this compound.The writers wish to express their thanks to Professor C. E. Boord of Ohio State University and Dr. George Calingaert of the Ethyl Gasoline Corporation for the xylenes and to Dr. P. D. Hammond of the Heyden Chemical Corporation for the o-dichlorobenzene used in this investigation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
