It`s not necessary to evaporate IPA, but the T of mixture must be raised to 60C.
If the all chemistry is pure, that possible too much of CuCl2 could have reacted with amine.
Can you describe the colour of the mixture when adding CuCl2?
The process is not entirely precise, and there will likely be a large number of co-products.
A mixture of halogen derivatives is formed (Cl-CH2-CH2-CH=O and CH3-CHCl-CH=O). Acrolein and its chlorinated derivatives can polymerize, forming polymers and hard-to-remove resins. In the final...
SiO2 needs be purchased. It is a good absorbent in synthesis.
This stage drying methylamine in MeOH or IPA, cooling is not necessary.
Carry out the process in a separate flask or bottle (polypropylene or glass) with germetic cork.
In this flask add 20-30 g Na2SO4 angydrous + 20 g SiO2, next add...
First stage: Drying reagents, Imine preparation and Reduction.
Proportions for 10 g of pure P2P (after distillation add SiO2):
1,1 g NaBH4 powder
20 ml of 40% methylamine in methanol (methanol saturated of methylamine) or 23-25 ml of 30% methylamine in IPA
20-50 g or more SiO2
20-30 g or more...
In the next step I recomended carried out a trial synthesis of meth for your experimental expirience.
How many g of P2P you willing to trial synthesis?
P2P should be pure (steam distillation will be applied).
You will need of drying agents such as SiO2 (silica gel) and angydrous Na2SO4 (sodium...
I recomended using the method with NaBH4. Spoiler: a video of this method will be available soon.
You also need to obtain a methylamine solution in alcohol (methanol or IPA) from methylamine hydrochloride. Can you do this stage...
Have you any of the next main reagents for provide conversion p2p to amph or meth: NH3; HgCl2 or other Hg salt; Formamide or ammonium formate; NaBH4 the best variant if you have it; Methylamine Hydrochloride?
I advise to produce methamphetamine.
Because, the methamphetamine is more stable than amphetamine.
