This post. He seemed like he had done a bunch of specific work so even though the molar ratios were off I tried it. Your post relates to bubbling into methanol and the synth I am using calls for it in water. Thanks. The thread i followed was...
I had to make the methylamine 40% from methylamine HCL. I used a post from this forum however the molar ratios seemed a little low in NaOH (40g MethylAmhcl 17g Naoh) but the poster said they had tried many recipes and found only slow addition of NaOH until Ph 12 produced proper results. When the...
do you have a good formula for making 40% aqueous methlyamine from its HCL and NaOH? I tried based on a technique in here that uses 40g methylamine HCL in 100ml water mixed with 17g Naoh in 50ml water. That seemed to not produce satisfactory results. The molar ratios seem off too but the poster...
@G.Patton @Novator how long roughly does amination usually take? What temperature does it normally heat to? I tried this at the scale listed, magnetic stirrer was no problem, the color change was not the same as the video, it slowly changed to green/yellow over two hours with a slight...
yeah i have mantles with magnetic stirrer I just assumed because the powder product isnt very dissolved and there is a lot of it it might not stir with a stir bar. thanks again for your advice
ok I have 5 liter three neck flasks but I dont have an overhead mixer for them just magnetic mantle and it looks like it would be hard for that to stir this mixture properly getting a small reactor could take a few months but if you think it is isnt easy to do a bit bigger I can wait
Thanks appreciate the help! My problem is I have a 50l reactor and the mixer only works if there is at least 2 liters of liquid, maybe I could just add more Ethyl acetate?
The link under the video goes to a write up of a different synthesis in nmp. Is there a link to a write up about this synth? I dont see it, would it be ok to try this at 10x scale same ratio of everything? Thanks
@Novator @G.Patton Can this be scaled? I like the reagents better than the look of the other mephedrone synths posted. I have a reactor with nice heater/chiller is the problem with scaling the heat generated? What is the target tempurature for this reaction? Thanks
does anyone know what happens if ph drops too low like ph 2? Ive found it goes from 7 to 2 very fast and wondering if its worth taking the crystals from acetone and treating I did get a good amount of crystals
Thanks, Im finding a lot of information online about mgSO4 being used as a water/oil emulsion stabilizer. I did not find this property reported for Na2SO4. I will try Sodium next time and see if I have better results, if not ill get a pic.
The freebase seems to have formed a massive emulsion layer that sits under the water layer and above the DCM. The layer has the consistency of apple sauce. It tests with marquie as being heavily purple/black and I was able to clean up a little of it through very tedius processing and got a few...
@G.Patton Hi thanks for your work! Do you have any advice on dissolving the MDMA freebase into DCM? Ours formed an apple sauce in the dcm (it tests purple black in marque reagant). We had dessicant in the mixture (mag sulfate) and used @btcboss2022 invitro methylamine HCL method but our organic...
hello @btcboss2022 @G.Patton I'm following this substituting mdp2p and calculating for molar ratios and something strange happened, instead of dissolving in DCM the organic layer formed a thick sludge like apple sauce in it, making it hard to drain (the sludge tests dark purple/black on...
