If I understand correctly, this membrain is unpermeable by certain compounds, some by salts, some by charged ones. It could be me effective than resins, depends how much time it takes.
Perhaps, some automation of the process could be done.
Btw, you mentioned iron salt. But how did this iron...
If I understand correctly, you operate with hydrochloride salt of pretty high purity 85+ purifying it to 95+? How much time does it take to process a kg of stuff hcl? Any comments and specification of used membrane?
For small amount yes. If we are talking about 20-50 gr, it is OK to recrystallize it in water/acetone in a half of a day.
But for bigger amount more time required.
Right now recrystallizing around 500 gr of mdma hcl in water/acetone. After 24 hours yeld is 83%. Around 85 gr are still dissolved...
It depends on transparency and crystals size. Is crystalls are pretty big and transparent, then yes, level of impurities is around 1-2%. If crystals are cloudy and small, then much much more, up to 10-15% impurities.
Thanks. Interesting. I also love this re-crystallization in 10% water/acetone solution. I used it for mdma hcl re-crystallization a hundres of times, but in this case the yeld is around 80-90% in 12 hours. To recover rest you shall evaporate most of liquid and repeat it again.
Quite impressive article.
What about meth from p2p isomers resolution in acetone with d-tartaric?
With 1st step d-tartaric acid applied to small amount of base in molar proportions 1:0.5 (base:acid). Then isomers ratio estimated pretty precisely, considering precipitates weight.
With 2nd step...
@G.Patton general, is it not more simple to use d-tartaric acid CAS No. 147-71-7 but in much more less molar proportions around 1 (base):0.2-0.5 (d-tartaric)? Exact proportions might be estimated with a simple test.
I also do funny things sometimes. This time I left a bottle with mdma hcl leftovers in water for a week in the basement storeroom. This is what I got after a week in the closed bottle: 14 gr transparent crystal.
I don't know exactly it is not my country, but as per buyer's first glimp,- methanol, ethanol 96%, pet. ethers (don't fit in this case i guess), acetaldehyde.
I guess you didn't understand the question correctly. It is not about acidation base leftovers. There is no base leftovers.
The question about correction of water pH. I know some people do double distillation to get water perfect 7.0, but it is a *****ing nightmare. May be add a few drops of...
A question on distilled water pH.
I know, all the distilled water that I buy is slightly alkali, mostly 7.5, sometimes 8.0.
Normally I adjust pH during acidation as 3.0-5.0. Then wash with acetone and OK.
But when I do final crystallization, I noticed pH falls down to 6.0-8.0. Does it make...
@btcboss2022 as i remember i wrote something wrong about your product long time ago, Sorry for that, considering new experience i can say, we must be able to admit mistakes. Sorry brother, I was wrong: black color makes confused, but your product is perfect!
