Make Firefox wrap long lines with hyphen or dash or whatever

I have a long title:
NEW CRYSTALLINE FORMS OF (2S)-N-5-(AMINO(IMINO)METHYL)-2-THIENYLMETHYL-1-(2R)-2-((CARBOXYMETHYL)AMINO)-3,3-DIPHENYLPROPANOYL-2-PYRROLIDINECARBOXAMIDE.nH2O

I put it in a Table with 500 px fixed width
<table border="1" width="500">
<tr><td>NEW CRYSTALLINE FORMS OF (2S)-N-5-(AMINO(IMINO)METHYL)-2-THIENYLMETHYL-1-(2R)-2-((CARBOXYMETHYL)AMINO)-3,3-DIPHENYLPROPANOYL-2-PYRROLIDINECARBOXAMIDE.nH2O
</td></tr></table>

Using endash does not change the fact that FF will not break this line - I need FF to break the line when it is longer than the table is wide

<table border="1" width="500">
<tr><td>NEW CRYSTALLINE FORMS OF (2S)&#8211;N&#8211;5&#8211;(AMINO(IMINO)METHYL)&#8211;2&#8211;THIENYLMETHYL&#8211;1&#8211;(2R)&#8211;2&#8211;((CARBOXYMETHYL)AMINO)&#8211;3,3&#8211;DIPHENYLPROPANOYL&#8211;2&#8211;PYRROLIDINECARBOXAMIDE.nH2O
</td></tr></table>

Any suggestions?
