Did I correctly find the temperature of the vapor pressure using Clausius-Clapeyron equation?

It has an enthalpy of vap of 41.098 kJ mol-1. If the vapor pressure is 78.90 mmHg at 43.21 celsius, at what temp is vapor pressure equal to 666.6mmhg?


I used Clausius-Clapeyron formula:


ln(78.90mmhg/666.6mmhg)=41.098x10-1kJ/0.008314kj/mol*K ((1/316.21K)-(1/t2)

and obtained: 133.6989 or 133.7K


is this correct?

Or is it 278.2?
