Hi, my question is in reference to the reduction of MDP2P to MDMA and P2P to meth with NaBH4… instead of using a jacketed reactor or ice bath to cool the reaction below 20 degrees during the addition of NaBH4, would it be possible to use dry ice dropped into the reaction In order to cool the...
And of course, as you mentioned you convert it to the freebase by adding NaOH / caustic soda / lye, just as you would to convert it to gas normally.
The other caviat is
That Methylamine hcl is sparingly soluble in chill methanol. What I did was dissolve it at room temp under heavy stirring...
BTCboss the legend posted about this, I was skeptical at first but it worked for me.
there is some variations however, you can’t put 500g methylamine hcl into 2-3L methanol and expect it to work for 1L of ketone just because the maths does, because a lot of the gas escapes
The solution.
As...
G Pattons initial publication uses freebase, but i think if you were referring to btcboss2022's publication in the comments, he used solid methylamine hcl which he dissolved in methanol. That is my interpretation. Hope this helps
