There were two. The Missouri Compromise of 1820, dealing with the territories acquired in the Louisiana Purchase. And the Compromise of 1850, dealing with the territories acquired from Mexico.

Why was sectional compromise impossible in 1860?
Sectional compromise did not work in 1860 for many reasons. One of them being that this was the time during the great potato famine in Ireland, so the refugees cascaded into the northern states in the 1850's. Therefore, the north had no room. Once the Europeans were in America, they had no desire for the practice of slavery, and the north states were not convinced to compromise over slavery. The new compromise was put out for grabs, but Lincoln rejected it because he would not allow the extension of slavery. Also, the Crittenden Compromise would allow new slave states, but Lincoln would not accept this, either.
