Although the first edition of "Melting Point Tables of Organic Compounds" was reprinted twice, it has not been available for some time. In this second, revised, edition several compounds of relatively minor practical significance were deleted from the tables and, in their stead, important compourids of greater general interest were included. The volume of the work has remained approximately unehanged. Many suggestions by colleagues active both in the pure and applied aspects of the field have been taken into consideration, as far as possible. Because the thorough revising and enlarging of this work exceeded the cap­ acities of a single person, the new work was carried out jointly by the authors named on the title page. The melting points of eutectic mixtures, which are newly listed in column 11 for the purpose of characterizing organic compounds, are taken from L. and A. Kofler's "Micromethods for the Determination of Organic Substances and Mixtures of Substances" (Verlag Chemie G.m.b.H., Berlin 1945)*
