Binary diffusion coefficients have been measured for benzene and perdeuteriobenzene diffusing in n-pentane, n-hexane, n-heptane, and n-hexadecane at 25/sup 0/C, and used to study the isotope effect in these systems. The isotope effect is not proportional to the square root of the molecular weight of the isotopic species, and appears to be related to the viscosity of the solvent as suggested by Aoyagi and Albright.
