Cocaethylene synthesis ex vivo

[PeterKeta]

Hello!
We all know that coke and alcohol reacts to cocaethylene in the body. It's alot more cardiotoxic and unhealthy. BUT my question is; whats the route to make cocaethylene in powderform? Found this:
"It's relativeley simple to do outside of the body. Dissolve in anhydrous ethanol with a few drops of hcl and refluxing would do the trick"

Not able to try myself. This is for hypothetical research only

For a short while you could buy coca tea in my country (South Africa). It was very mild, in fact comparable to rooibos tea IMO (caffeine free tea we often drink here). Not stimulating in the least, actually quite soothing and very easy to drink.


I took about 20-30 teabags and shoved them in a bottle of vodka, that made some fairly strong cocaethylene, which at least provided me with a little stimulation.

Transesterification>
Heat Cocaine HCl in dry as possible etanol togheter with natriumethoxid wich is heated so the etanol can be distilled away (70 to 75 degrees celsius)
Then add water wich will break down the ethoxide to natriumhydroxide. The etanol evaporates and cocaethylene will be the remaing product.

Also read that it can be made with heat in anhydrous alcohol and acetic acid in a similar way..

Still haven't been able to try yet!

It's really bad for the heart though!

True true, but it's interesting that the combination makes a new substance inside of the body. So to make that outside of it and have it as hydrochloric salt would be a chemical achievement
But yes drugs are bad M'kay
