In coiitrnst to the more thuri three thoiisand minimum azeotropes :vhicli h ~ v e l w n recorded in the literittiire, there are only about t:vo hundred and fifty mnsimimi iizeotropes. The hcst linoux of this t,ype are systems having water :1.s one component and r ~ i i inorganic acid (hydrofluoric ncid, hydrochloric acid, hydi,ol,romic acid, hydriodic acid, nitric acid) as the second constituent. Les,s fumi1i:tr :we maximum azeotropes foi-ined f i m i acetic i~cidand organic bases (pyridine, picoline, t i k t hylaminc), first dc ibccl hy Gmtlner (2) in 1S91, working in 1-ictor Jleyer's luhratorg. On the assumption t h a t definite conipoundv \\.ere fornied, Gardnei. ascribed t o one of his azeotropes the formula 4CH3COOI-I. S(C12HB')B h i t admitted that) in t>hevapyr stale, :tt the boiling point of thymol, This **Compound"was completely tlissociat'ed into acetic acid and triethylamine nioleculr,s. Since n o other inl'orination besides the boiling point (162°C.) of' the b'compouiidOwas svailable, it \vas considered worbhwhile to study the boiling point-vapor composition diagram for the acetic acid-trietliylaminc systein at atmospheric pressure. In the coui'se of this investigation it was discovered that the tn-o components are not, miseihle in all proport'ions. In this respect the y s t e m rescmhles t o sonic cistent. the \\ater-hydrochloi.ic acid and the water1iydrol)rornic acid systems, i\,hei-c there is little miscibility on the acid side in spite of the fact that' considerable 1ie:tt evolution and cion t i x t i m occur when one of these acids is added t o ivater.
