ALLYL ALCOHOL. 
A C. P. sample of allyl alcohol from Merck was treated with 
K 2 C0 3 , over which it stood for several days. From this it 
was distilled and the distillate treated with fused potassium 
hydroxide. The distillate from this was again treated with 
caustic potash in contact with which it stood several days and 
then distilled. This distillate was redistilled twice and the 
conductivity determinations made as soon as possible. The 
specific conductivity was 6.5 X 10 -6 .

BENZYL ALCOHOL. 
The sample of benzyl alcohol employed was from Merck and 
was rectified by distillation. The portion used had a very con¬ 
stant boiling point. Owing to the difficult solubility of the 
salts and the slight conductivity of solutions of this solvent very 
few determinations were made. The specific conductivity was 
1.76 X 10- 6 .
