Amphetamine synthesis from P2NP via Al/Hg (video)

[NieDoswiadczony]

something might be happening if the reaction is not cooled below 60 degrees but for example 70 degrees, can it be noticed, if so, any tips?

Hi. Reducing yield, more side products.

Hello, I have a small problem... I only got mercuric nitrate normanal... a volumetric solution... I followed the instructions for dilution exactly... my amalgam reacts and when I add p2np + acetic acid + iso after washing, it reacts very briefly and almost doesn't even heat up... the eccentric reaction lasts about 5 seconds and that's it... do you know what it could be? and one more question... my amphe is always excellent but the yield from 10g p2np is around 3g max, thank you...I follow exactly the procedures from your instructions

Hello, It really hard to understand what do you mean. Can you explain in more details in correct Eng please?

What is with your amalgam? Probably there is problem.

hello. after reaction with P2NP+ipa+acetic acid. when I add NaOh and leave it overnight there are two layers on top light yellow oil and at the bottom dark liquid only there are crystals in the bottom layer, as I guess it is sodium sulfate? the question is where could I have made a mistake was the temperature too high after adding P2NP i.e. more than 60 degrees? or if I added NaOH to an even warmer mixture? could I have done something else wrong?

You need to extract oily layer and follow method exactly it's written and recorded, man.

Is 80% acetic acid good enough?

 

[G.Patton]

You can use it but you have to recalculate it and take it more than GAA.

I've tested with 50g p2np and reaction was very controllable, will be scaling up to 100g this week.
