Amfetamīna sintēze vienā katlā no P2NP ar NaBH4/CuCl2 (1 kg mērogā)

[SelfExper1menter]

Sveiki visi. Es mēģināju pagatavot amfetamīnu, izmantojot šo recepti nelielā apjomā, bet man tas neizdevās. Viss šķita ok, pēc žāvēšanas mans produkts izskatījās pēc balta pulvera ar sarkanīgu nokrāsu. Ja tas būtu amfetamīna sulfāts (ko es mēģināju pagatavot), iznākums būtu 84 %. Problēma ir tāda, ka tas nav amfetamīns.

Fizioloģiskā ietekme
Izmēģināju 20-30 mg, noteikti bija stimulācija, bet arī tas izraisīja drudzi un, acīmredzot, imunitātes pazemināšanos: abas reizes, kad to lietoju vairākas dienas pēc kārtas, saslimu ar elpceļu infekcijām (pirmajā reizē domāju, ka tā ir nejaušība). Cita persona, kas to lietoja, līdz 90 mg nepiedzīvoja nekādu stimulāciju, tikai nelielu sausumu mutē. Nevienam no mums nav nekādas tolerances pret stimulatoriem.

Ķīmiskā testēšana
1 g pulvera pilnībā izšķīst 10 ml H2O.
Pievienojot lieko NaOH šķīdumu izmērītai pulvera masai mēģenē, es saņēmu aptuveni pareizu brīvās bāzes tilpumu ar amonjaka smaržu. Es atdalīju brīvās bāzes slāni, izžāvēju to ar CaCl2 un mēģināju titrēt ar skābi. Rezultātā izmērīju frībāzes molāro masu, kas bija aptuveni 171 (un amfetamīnam tā ir 135). Lai gan mani mērījumi nebija ļoti precīzi, atšķirība tomēr ir pārāk liela, lai to varētu izskaidrot tikai ar mērījumu kļūdām.

Manas novirzes no procedūras
1) Pievienojot P2NP, es sapratu, ka tas prasīs vairākas stundas, tāpēc kļuvu nepacietīgs un iegremdēju reakcijas kolbu istabas temperatūras ūdens vannā. Pēc tam es varēju pievienot P2NP gandrīz visu uzreiz, un maisījuma temperatūra nepārsniedza 40-50 °C.
2) Es vadījos pēc videoieraksta, tāpēc es neiztvaikoju IPA un pievienoju sērskābi tieši IPA/brīvās bāzes slānim.
3) Man tobrīd nebija acetona, tāpēc pirms paskābināšanas to nepievienoju un filtrēto "amfetamīna sulfāta" pastu noskaloju ar IPA.
4) IPA ir mazāk gaistošs nekā acetons, tāpēc man nācās nogulsnes uz vairākām stundām ievietot cepeškrāsnī, lai tās izžūtu līdz nemainīgam svaram. Temperatūra krāsnī nepārsniedza 80 °C.

Tātad galvenais jautājums ir, kur notika kļūda? Es nebrīnītos par zemu iznākumu vai par to, ka produkta vispār nav, bet iegūt labu iznākumu no amīna, kas nav amfetamīns?!

The method as described here lacks all product workup/cleanup and and as such provides a very dirty and unclean Amphetamine, in special as NasBH4 reductions are all not giving very clean product. Purple MDMA and such.
I know the physiological effects like fever like very well and it is just the missing cleaning trust me.
There are several ways to do the workup, from distillation, normal, vacuum or steam of the base or dissolving the sulfate in water and washing this several times with toluene or petrolether or my favorite: 50/50 mix of petrol ether and Ethylacetate. Then evaporate the water and wash the resulting salt with copious amounts of Acetone and petrol ether as last. Already the simple washings give you a consumable product which does not make you sick like the crap which contains borate salts or else.

[GhostChemist]

Chemical testing
The acid concentration must be precisely known (titration with standart solution of NaOH).
In the titrimetric analysis the concentration must be used only in equivalent concentration or normality or molality.
If one reagent is a weak acid or base and the other is a strong acid or base, the titration curve is irregular and the pH shifts less with small additions of titrant near the equivalence point. Indicators such as Methyl red or Litmus should give more accurate results
This method cannot be applied in this implementation

16 soļu procedūra feniletilamīna iegūšanai no 30 g p2np

Šķīdinātāja sagatavošana:
Izopropilspirta (IPA) un ūdens sajaukšana proporcijā 2:1. Pārliecinieties, ka šķīdinātāja pietiek visai reakcijai (ieteicams apmēram 100-150 ml).

Nātrija borohidrīda (NaBH4) svēršana:
Nosveriet apmēram 6-7 g NaBH4 (tas atbilst apmēram 0,15-0,18 moliem, kas ir pietiekami, lai reducētu 0,15 molus p2np, aptuveni 30 g).

NaBH4 šķīdināšana:
NaBH4 izšķīdina aukstā IPA/H2O šķīdinātāja maisījumā. Šķīdumu tur 0-5 °C temperatūrā ledus vannā, lai novērstu strauju sadalīšanos.

P2np pievienošana:
Nepārtraukti maisot, NaBH4 šķīdumam lēnām pievienot 30 g p2np. Maisījuma krāsa pakāpeniski mainīsies no dzeltenas uz gaišāku.

Maisīšana un temperatūras kontrole:
Reakcijas maisījumu maisīja 1-2 stundas, saglabājot temperatūru 0-5 °C, lai nodrošinātu pilnīgu nitrogrupas reducēšanu līdz amīnam.

Vara(II) hlorīda (CuCl2) pievienošana (pēc izvēles):
Pievieno 0,5-1 g CuCl2 kā katalizatoru un maisa vēl 30-60 minūtes 0-5 °C temperatūrā. CuCl2 palīdz katalizēt reducēšanu, paātrinot reakciju un uzlabojot produkta tīrību.

25 % NaOH šķīduma pievienošana:
Lēnām pievieno 25 % NaOH šķīdumu, lai pH būtu apmēram 9. Tas neitralizē visus skābos blakusproduktus un palīdz atbrīvot feniletilamīnu.

Reakcijas pabeigšana:
Ļauj maisījumam maisīties vēl 30 minūtes istabas temperatūrā (20-25 °C), lai reakcija būtu pabeigta.

Paskābināšana ar 98% sērskābi (H2SO4):
Uzmanīgi pievieno 98% sērskābi, līdz pH nokrītas zem 2. Šis solis palīdz pārvērst feniletilamīnu tā sāls formā ūdens fāzē, kamēr piemaisījumi paliek organiskajā fāzē.

Organiskās fāzes ekstrakcija:
Atdaliet organisko un ūdens fāzi. Organiskā fāze satur blakusproduktus, bet ūdens fāze satur feniletilamīna sāli.

Basifikācija, lai ekstrahētu feniletilamīnu:
Paaugstināt pH līdz 10-12, izmantojot 25 % NaOH šķīdumu. Tas atbrīvos feniletilamīnu brīvā amīna formā.

Ekstrakcija ar organisko šķīdinātāju:
Ekstrahējiet feniletilamīnu organiskā šķīdinātājā, piemēram, dietilēterī vai hloroformā.

Organiskās fāzes mazgāšana:
Organisko fāzi mazgā ar destilētu ūdeni, lai atdalītu visus sārmu atlikumus un blakusproduktus.

Šķīdinātāja iztvaicēšana:
Iztvaicēt organisko šķīdinātāju, izmantojot rotācijas iztvaicētāju vai vakuumā 30-40 °C temperatūrā.

Kristalizācija:
Lai attīrītu produktu, jēlfeniletilamīnu kristalizē, izmantojot aukstu acetonu.

Žāvēšana un uzglabāšana:
Feniletilamīna kristālus žāvēt vakuumā vai žāvēšanas skapī, pēc tam tos pienācīgi uzglabāt.

Galvenās iespējamās kļūdas un to ietekme:
Nepareiza temperatūras kontrole:
Ja NaBH4 pievienošanas laikā šķīdums pārkarst, reducējošais aģents var ātri sadalīties, kā rezultātā iznākums var būt mazāks.

Ātra reaģenta pievienošana:
P2np vai NaOH pievienošana pārāk ātri var izraisīt eksotermisku reakciju, kā rezultātā veidojas nevēlami blakusprodukti.

pH kontroles kļūdas:
Nepareiza pH uzturēšana var izraisīt nevēlamu blakusproduktu, piemēram, daļēji reducētu savienojumu, veidošanos.
Pārmērīga maisīšana vai nepareiza apstrāde:
Pārmērīga maisīšana var izraisīt oksidēšanos, kā rezultātā rodas nevēlami nitro vai nitrozosavienojumi.
Piesārņoti reaģenti vai iekārtas:
Ja tiek izmantoti piesārņoti reaģenti vai iekārtas, var rasties piemaisījumi, kas izraisa blakusproduktu rašanos, kuri var būt līdzīgi vēlamajam produktam, bet tiem var būt atšķirīgas ķīmiskās īpašības.
Ideālā temperatūra katrā posmā:
NaBH4 pievienošana un sākotnējā reakcija: 0-5°C
p2np pievienošana un maisīšana: 0-5°C
Reakcijas pabeigšana: 20-25°C
Paskābināšana ar sērskābi: Telpas temperatūra (20-25°C)
Šķīdinātāja iztvaicēšana: 30-40°C
Kristalizācija: -5-0°C
Kopsavilkums:
Iepriekšminēto soļu rūpīga ievērošana un atbilstošas temperatūras, pH un tīrības apstākļu uzturēšana nodrošina sekmīgu fenilentilamīna ražošanu, izvairoties no nevēlamu blakusproduktu veidošanās, kuriem var būt atšķirīgas ķīmiskās īpašības, bet kuri izskatās līdzīgi.

6 to 7 G of borohydride is not reducing 30 G of p2np all the way to the amine and the copper on top of it. There's a reason why a large excess is used and it's mainly before the first part where p2np is added to the borohydride.

 

[Ironbender]

I tried this synthesis on a small scale.
It failed completely. In the end I didn't even receive A-Oil.

This was my path:

p2np 10g

IPA/H2O (1:2) IPA 120ml/H2O 60ml (180ml)

NaBH4 17.4g

CuSO4.5H2O 7.9g in 20ml H2O

NaOH 25.6g in 80ml H2O

First water and then IPA were filled into the flask at room temperature and stirred.

NaBH4 was completely filled into the flask and stirred overhead.

p2np was added over a period of 30 min.
The temperature did not rise above 45 degrees.

When all P2NP was in the flask I increased the temperature to 55-58 degrees and refluxed for 40 minutes.

Then CuSO4.5H2O
dropped into the flask. Black copper immediately formed
Somehow the temperature didn't increase.

The RM was heated in a water bath to 78-80 degrees for 30 minutes.

The flask was left at room temperature for 1 hour.

There were 2 layers in the flask, black copper at the bottom. 'Amber cloudy at the top.

There was something slightly yellow in between that couldn't be dissolved.

Then 80 ml of 25% NaOH was added to the RM and a dark amber layer became visible.

It didn't smell like amphetamine base,
it smelled very flowery.
Nothing reminiscent of Amphetamine Oil.

Can someone explain what was wrong?
I followed the small scale instructions from this thread

p2np was from BM-chemistry
and looks very clean and bright.
It can't fail because of that.

I'm sorry for the bad English, hope you understand what I want to say.

 

[waltjr5858]

I know what you mean by the flowery smell but I can't tell you what it is. I have had that exact failure. Even using cucl2. The copper didn't cause your failure... it's something else.

 

[waltjr5858]

But I do know that no matter what amounts are used as long as you either scale down or scale up preferably from the original video that is up on this site there is a caption that comes up during the video that says you should add the p2np over the course of 6 hours. The only time this reaction has really worked good for me with very strong effects at the end except was still dirty and needed proper cleaning but it worked. Normal stuff water alcohol and borohydride all together and then I took whatever I was using at that time for the substrate p2np and divided it by 24. Whatever that equaled that's how much I added every 15 minutes until it was gone which was 6 hours. I noticed on the last addition that there was no reaction from the nabh4 fornsome reason? Guess I used it all up possibly so I added a half a gram of borohydride just in case. Waited 5 minutes and started dripping the proper amount of cucl2 in. When doing smaller reactions it's really hard to tell if you have added copper until the black particulate stops forming because the flask is small to begin with and the whole damn thing turns black. So as according to the video they used 25 or 26 G to 250 g of p2np so I did a 10 G reaction and it was somewhere around a gram or a little over of copper so I just dripped the entire thing in. Once I was done adding I just cranked the heat until I hit 80c and waited about 35 minutes and allowed it to cool to room temperature and it worked perfect minus being completely contaminated with some kind of Borate.. once I noticed that I just redesolved and acidified to a pH of 3 gave it a wash with nonpolar and then refreebased and gave it a little water wash. Dried it and re-added acid to crash out... it is a finicky reaction and definitely not as easy as most people put it there has to be some kind of trick as to the temperature you put your copper in the reaction or how long to let it react before adding the copper or something there's a trick to make it consistent because I can definitely tell you the aluminum Mercury reaction is very inconsistent even worse than this one

 

[Tamishea]

Hello everyone. Im finished my first synthesis but i dont know that i do everything properly, when cooper black showed at the bottom i leaved everything at 75c and then after 30 min refluxing without Boiling because of temp 75c i have filtered thru coffee filter, and not leaved to room temperature and just added then 25% naoh. The layers are separated but the oil smells only IPA. And react with h2so4 but everything is green and pH Get down to 1,3. Should i take the temperature higher to 80 when black cooper is at the bottom and wait that smell from ipa is gone (evaporating with or without reflux condenser?) then leave to Room temperature AND THEN FIRST BASIFY WITH 25% NAOH? Please help

 

[GhostChemist]

``Should i take the temperature higher to 80 when black cooper`` - No, temperature before 80C or low (this stage more applied for big scale synth and help to evaporate IPA), as a variant for small scale synth 30-50 min at temperature 40-60C

 

[Tamishea]

When i give whole CUCL2 we say at 60c one hour long, then should it smells normally then? Because my synthesis give me yellowish oil but with STRONG smell from ipa and when i give sulfuric Acid it becomes greenish.

The scale was
300ipa 150 dh20
43,5 nabh4
25g p2np
2,375 cucl2*h20

 

[William D.]

I think these are the remains of reaction products. To avoid this, it is better to dilute the reaction mixture with water and extract for example with ethylacetate. After extraction, rinse the organic layer several times with water and acidify. Then there will be no excess color or burning when using.

 

[waltjr5858]

Absolutely. Something green? Either left over from condensation or which I still would not know what that would be or there is copper in the IPA. I have had copper in a certain form get either through the filter or whatever it got in there and it did turn slightly greenish bluish just like it is before when you make it up. This reaction to me is just hit or miss. It's definitely novel and I have had many many failures. Now p2np to P2P and then leuckart has always produced every single time. I still occasionally play around with the borohydride but it can be a pain in the ass. Or I have just tossed it in with LiAlH4 and called it a day. Hopefully that might give the person before that is having issues with the borohydride reduction to try something else they're still having problems instead of wasting precursor. Unless they have a bunch of it then who cares.

Hello!

When preforming vacuum distilation of ipa (step 8) , what vacuum pump to pick, if it is rated 10 000mbar and I need only 60mbar, is it possible to regulate it or I should buy rotary vacuum pump rated to 100mbar.


I found out that best range for ipa evaporation is 50-100mbar which is considered low vacuum, did anybody have experiences or suggestions with this problem?

 

[William D.]

Do not forget about productivity in liters. It may be that you use a powerful pump and it will destroy your filter. But a high vacuum can be used. 60mbar is more than enough for filtering.

 

[waltjr5858]

You will actually be surprised you do not need a very powerful pump and determining what suction you are running at is a pain in the ass. I actually have a very good vacuum gauge that I hook directly up to my system and test boiling temperatures of known substances and it's still a little all over the place. I think the best thing you can do is steam distillation If the product allows because it does come over nice and clean and then just dry it with potassium carbonate and you are in business. Definitely do not buy a rotary vein vacuum pump because I have destroyed probably five of those things. They are very powerful and I can boil water below room temperature easily but without inexpensive setup I do not have a way to regulate vacuum pressure. If you crack open a small leak on purpose to lower the pressure what that causes is air now flowing through the system instead of sitting at a vacuum which causes your product to go right into a trap or right into the vacuum pump and gone. Any kind of oil that can be steam distilled is absolutely worth the time it takes. If you definitely need vacuum they sell some on Amazon and they are called diaphragm pumps I believe and require no oil so there's no way for you to contaminate the vacuum pump when you do distillation. Just pump away and they definitely go low enough to let's say take a 200° C boiling temp and get it close to just a little over 100 so plenty low enough and definitely worth it over the rotary vein. I think they cost just a tiny bit extra nothing crazy. That was probably the best purchase I ever made as a vacuum pump after blowing up five of the other ones

 

[mile123]

Thank you for answer. You have a lot of practice and you confirmed my every doubt about vacuum distillation and provided more information than I could find on whole forum.

I also agree that rotary vein vacuum pumps aren't suitable since you have vapors, even with cold trap, it is cheaper to buy diaphragm pump.

I researched a lot about controlling vacuum, measuring pressure, but I think it isn't so important as maintaining right temperatures during process. In my head it seemed important.
My idea is to take fridge compressor from junkyard 600w, 20l/min and convert it into vacuum pump, then just test the theory, can I turn it on, and leave it running or reach maximum vacuum and then turn it off and see how it goes and how long it will last. I also hope that I don't need to do overhead stirring while vacuuming, but even if I have, I will get batch chemical reactor with everything on it for vacuum distillation and whole process.

I believe you about steam distillation, but I want to stick with vacuum distillation since large chemical reactors (200L) are designed to work well under vacuum and I don't have strength to do in depth research about steam distillation.

I will try and let you know the results, I may preform simple distillation just for start, to test final product.

 

[mile123]

I'm not sure if you saw this video , A Vacuum Distillation Unit, where he also didn't really care about boiling points and pressures, he just turned it on until process is done, there is also vacuum depth controlling tap but I believe it doesn't make difference in terms of control?

 

[William D.]

Vacuum diaphragm pump with PTFE membrane. I think the best for our tasks.

 

[mile123]

Yes, I agree with you, those pumps are worth of investment since you can apply them on large chemical reactors as well.

I just want to wait before purchase to see if I can carry whole process even with simple distillation.

 

[mile123]

One more question, has anyone tried this venturi water ejector, it works by putting pressure and ability to create vacuum and transfer liquids or gasses.

 

[William D.]

The only speed of the flow may not be enough to filter dense suspensions. Water should be as cold as possible for better efficiency.

 

[pekonias]

I don't anderstand what is happening? I used 300g NaBH4 2.07 L IPA, 1.03 L dH2O, 173g P2Np 22g CuCl.2H2O and everything went well - reaction over and I add 0.4 L 25% NaOH sol. to get (pH 13.5) separate layers but... there's wery little separation. The aq. layer was only 0.3L so now I have 2.2 L organic layer, more than starting IPA + H2O (2.1 L). So does organic layer now contains NaOH? The pH after reaction was ~12 and there was no layer separation so I added the 0.4 L NaOH sol. What should I do now? Add more NaOH sol. and vacuum distill? Maybe acidify to pH <=3 and distill. Please advice guys.

 

[pekonias]

Obviously I can't count, actually got correct volume for the organic part and also extracted the sludge with 0.3L IPA. It's very confusing when told to add NaOH to pH 12 when it's already at that after reaction. Also aq. part seems to small but it's mostly in the black mud. Going to go ahead with water aspirator vacuum distilling off the IPA and hopefully not lose all product like last time. I think got too hot 80C with -28" Hg vacuum last time. Maybe report how it went tomorrow if has any luck.
