The first time I had 3,5g, and the first time I had 5,5-6g, my potentials errors are that my pH wasnt very good I think, maybe to low and my 4-MMC hasnt been very white after filtration, I think its because I let acetone and HCl solution with 4mmc in the freezer, because some hours later, the white milk solution was white but with some red/orange, I think I did an error in the methylation too, I think I let the solution more than 2 hours, idk if this is an error, oh and my solution wasnt hot, I make it in my attic and the temperature is cold so.. Maybe the reaction is not hot enough to have a maximal yield, I can heat the solution at the beginning to start the reaction maybe?
The first time I put the 4-MMC/acetone/HCl in the freezer while 8-10 hours, the 4-MMC rock was very very white but acetone/HCl was the bottom part because I didnt mix before the freezer step..
If someone can help me to increase the yield please? :'(
