First-order transitions to dilute stage 1 from stages 2--4 and from mixed stages are observed in Li-graphite compounds in the range 430--1020 K. The resulting (T,x) phase boundary agrees generally with predictions by Safran and others except for a sharp peak of very stable stage-2 compositions around xapprox.0.4. The commensurability energy does not contribute to this peak since both low-T and high-T phases are disordered.
