V O L U M E 27, NO. 3, M A R C H 1 9 5 5 coefficient of electrical conductance in acetic acid. FVater from a constant temperature bath circulating through the cell jacket permitted temperature control to Zt0.2" C. of the desired temperature. A Leeds & Northrup conductance bridge (catalog No. 4866) was used to determine the conductance values. I n order to increase the sensitivity of the bridge a t high resistances a cathode ray oscilloscope (Type 304-H, Allen B. Dumont Laboratories) was connected in parallel with the null point galvanometer of the bridge. The null point of the bridge was determined from the resulting screen pattern of the oscilloscope. Chemicals and Reagents. ANHYDROUS ACETIC ACID. Reagent grade acetic acid was rendered anhydrous by refluxing over boron acetate ( 4 ) for 4 hours and subsequently distilling the anhydrous acid. The water content of acetic acid prepared by this method vias less than 0.027, by the Karl Fischer method. STASDARD SULFURIC ACID. A standard solution of sulfuric acid in anhydrous acetic acid was prepared by diluting absolute sulfuric acid (5)Tyith acetic acid. The molarity of the acid solution was determined by barium sulfate precipitation. STAXDARD LITHIUM,SODIUM, 4 N D POT.-ISSIC.\r ACETATE. ACcurately weighed quantities of these reagent grade salts previously dried overnight in a vacuum desiccator were dissolved in anhydrous acetic acid and diluted to volume. STASD.4RD TRIAVYL OYICM ACET-ITE.Commercial triamylamine was purified by distilling several times under reduced pressure, rejecting the first and last 20% of the distillates. Accurately Feighed quantities of the amine viere dissolved in anhydrous acetic acid and diluted to volume. The molarity of the resulting solution &-as checked by titrating with standard perchloric acid in acetic acid, using quinaldine red as the indicator. It was noted that acetic acid solutions of the triamylamine used developed a deep red color upon standing for several days. STASD -IRD HYDROCHLORIC ACID. Anhydrous hydrochlorir arid A as passed into cool anh>-drousacetic acid until fairly satu-

rated. The resulting solution was diluted with acetic acid and the molarity was determined by silver chloride precipitation. Frequent restandardization of this solution was found necessary owing to the high volatility of hydrochloric acid in acetic acid. Procedure. Accurately measured quantities of previously standardized acids were pipetted into the conductance cell and diluted to a volume of 100 ml. with anhydrous acetic acid. The solution was stirred until it had attained the equilibrium temperature of the thermostated vessel. Small increments of standardized base were added and the solution was stirred for about 30 seconds. The conductance reading was taken nrhen it became constant after stirring had stopped.

Purification, Purity, and Freezing Points of Sixty-four American Petroleum Institute Standard and Research Hydrocarbons A N T O N 1. STREIFF, A U R A R. H U L M E , P H Y L L I S A. C O W I E , N E D C. K R O U S K O P , and FREDERICK D. R O S S l N l Carnegie lnstitute of Technology, Pittsburgh, f a .

The purification and determination of freezing point and purity are described for 64 hydrocarbons of the American Petroleum Institute Standard and Research series, including 11 paraffins, 3 alkyl cyclopropanes, 1 alkyl cyclopentane, 4 alkyl cyclohexanes, 24 monoolefins, 12 alkyl benzenes, 3 dicycloparaffins,3 dinuclear aromatics, 1 cycloparaffin-aromatic, and 2 olefin-cycloparaffins. Values of freezing points and cryoscopic constants are reported.

T

HE investigation reported is a continuation of the work of producing highly purified hydrocarbons of the API Standard and Research series ( 2 , 5-9). This paper describes the purification and determination of purity and freezing points of 61 hydrocarbons, which include 11 paraffins, 3 alkylcyclopropanes, 1 alkyl cyclopentane, 4 alkyl cyclohexanes, 24 mono-olefins, 12 alkyl benzenes, 3 dicycloparaffins, 3 dinuclear aromatics, 1 cycloparaffin-aromatic, and 2 olefin-cycloparaffin hydrocarbons. The final lots of material labeled -4PI Standard are sealed in vacuum in glass ampoules and made available as -4PI Standard samples of hydrocarbons, by the Carnegie Institute of Technology. (Twenty-seven of the Standard hydrocarbons are also available from the National Bureau of Standards, Washington 25, D.C.) T h e material labeled B P I Research is made available in appropriate small lots through the American Petroleum Institute Research Project 44 for loan to qualified investigators for the measurement of needed physical, thermodynamic, and spectral properties. Table I gives the names of the 64 compounds, the laboratories providing the starting material, details concerning the first and

succeeding distillations or other methods of purification, the character of the plot of the freezing point of the hydrocarbon part of the distillate as a function of its volume, and the volumes of the final lots of API Standard and Research material. The procedures followed in the process of purification and determination of purity were the same as those described in previous papers (3,5-9). Details of the distillation apparatus and operations also have been described ( 4 , IO). Figures 1, 2, and 3 show graphically the results of some typical distillations. Figures 1, 2, and 3 represent the cases where the purest material is, respectively, largely in the forepart of the distillation, in the middle of the distillation, and in the after part of the distillation. I n each figure plots are given for refractive index, boiling point, freezing point, and purity, as a function of the volume of the hydrocarbon part of the distillate. As emphasized in the previous reports, the blending of fractions of distillate for the preparation of material of the highest purity can be done safely only on the basis of the freezing points. Table I1 gives the following information for the compounds measured: the kind of time-temperature curves, whether freezing or melting, used to determine the freezing point; the freezing point of the actual sample; the calculated value of the freezing point for zero impurity; the value of the cryoscopic eonstant, determined from the lowering of the freezing point on the addition of a known amount of a suitable impurity ( 3 , 4 ) ;and the resulting calculated amount of impurity in the -4PI Standard and Research materials. ACKNOWLEDGMENT

Grateful acknowledgment is made to the organizations mentioned in Table I for their contributions of starting materials.
