The molecular weights of organic compounds of known constitution have been determined with satisfactory accuracy, using milligram quantities of materials, by a static measurement of the vapor pressure difference between pure solvents and solutions of the compounds. The method may be used over a considerable temperature range. The suitability of solvents is governed by their chemical stability and vapor pressure. Results obtained using compounds in the molecular weight range of 600–1000 are reported.
