You can use toluene as a solvent for extraction. You cannot use it for the reaction instead of DMSO. You sir are awesome and I read through your worms quite a bit on the site. So I don't mean to question your expertise on this subject; but I've found multiple online sources talking about the...
Hello! Yes I was wondering, but I think I confused this with the oxidization. Toluene can be oxidized to benzaldehyde correct? I think I could get by without some of the equipmemt usef in the video. i.e. reactor, rotoevap and overhead stirrer.
Definitely this!!!! as well as prepping the RP from matchbooks since thats where most clandestine chemists would source theirs from and the most economical way of obtaining pure I2 crysrals. which I guess brings me to my nect suggestion that someone else already suggested : synthesis of...
Until I can get a hold of some precursors p2p is out of the question for me. So I am wanting to try a small scale reduciotn via RP/I and found a writeup by a fellow named Curbshot. There is honestly more people against the forementioned write up and the main reason being that todays pills are a...
You did not leave the ephedrine in solution long enough. A few things must happen for this reaction to be successful. #1 is free'd electrons from dissolved lithium need to be formed to reduce the ephedrine, the ephedrine must be based before it is soluble in the non polar solvent so that it can...
