Vapor‐liquid equilibrium data are presented for the binary benzene‐2‐propanol and the ternary benzene‐cyclohexane‐2‐propanol systems at 760 mm. of Hg. The equilibrium data are correlated with the van Laar and three‐suffix Margules equations and a small ternary constant was found to be necessary for the satisfactory description of the ternary data. A ternary minimum azeotrope was found to be 14.2 mole % of benzene, 47.4 mole % of cyclohexane, and 38.4 mole % of 2‐propanol at 69.1°C.
