Methamphetamine from ephedrine tablets

[G.Patton]

Hello, what is a question do you want to ask?

 

[Mr.Blanks00]

how to get rid of the triprolidine content in pseudoephedrine pills, and is it possible to make meth with only Hi without red phosphorus, because I can't get red phosphorus.

 

[G.Patton]

Hello, sorry for a long reply. Ephedrine extraction from pills methods can be used for this goal.
You can use Hypophosphorous route.

 

[Mr.Blanks00]

Ok thank you very much sir.

 

[mithyl2]

can you use xylene in place of toluene?

 

[Jordan Belfort]

Yes, but you cannot bubble HCL gas through it. It will reduce the xylene to a different compound (found out the expensive way earlier)

 

[G.Patton]

Hi, I think yes. They have rather similar properties.

 

[mithyl2]

hi again, what is the best way to make hypophosphorous acid?

 

[G.Patton]

Buy it.

 

[mithyl2]

is there an exact amount of sodium thiosulfate that should be used for the Hypophosphorous route?

 

[mithyl2]

what final % yield of meth should there be per gram of Pseudoephedrine for the Hypophosphorous routes?

and can i use ephedrine in place of Pseudoephedrine for the Hypophosphorous route?

 

[triwps369]

Can you instead of bubbling HCL gas ,just add sulfuric acid until Ph 6? And have it as methamphetamine sulfate.

 

[G.Patton]

Yes, you can.

Yes

Would Advil Cold work? It says it has 200mg ibuprofen and 30mg pseudoephedrine hydrochloride and the inactive ingredients are: Acetylated monoglycerides, carnauba wax, colloidal silicon dioxide, corn starch, croscarmellose sodium, methylparaben, microcrystalline cellulose, pharmaceutical glaze, pharmaceutical ink, povidone, pregelatinized starch, propylparaben, sodium benzoate, sodium lauryl sulfate, stearic acid, sucrose, synthetic iron oxides, titanium dioxide.

 

[Us3rn4m3]

OK I was looking at the wrong page, it would be nurofen cold and flu, it still has 200mg ibuprofen and 30mg pseudoephedrine hydrochloride, but the inactive ingredients are:

cellulose
microcrystalline,
calcium phosphate,
croscarmellose sodium,
hypromellose,
magnesium stearate,
mastercoat yellow FA 0156 or opaspray Yellow MI-IF-6168,
povidone,
talc-purified and
opacode monogramming ink S-1-277001 BLACK'

 

[Us3rn4m3]

Also, would deionized water be better? Or just redistilled water?

Hi, I have found the final HCl step very difficult to do as it is very easy to overacidify the ephedrine base, then it takes a long time to dry and probably some Eph HCl is also lost during drying. I have been thinking of using sulphuric acid instead, creating Ephedrine Sulphate, the question is whether this could be used in the I2/RP route later on, or would the sulphate ion do some trouble (e.g. react with some of the ingredients, inhibit the reaction etc.) during the reduction? Hopefully one of the experts can answer this question. I know that bubbling dry HCl would also be an option, but this is also somewhat difficult for a novice.

Hi Expert i wanna ask in 1 & 2 route temperature refluxe.
1. how much the temperature range can i stand in 24h reflux n 8h?
2. how much temperature range u mean in low heat ?

Thank's Expert

 

[G.Patton]

The lowest temperature, which is needed to boil the reaction mixture.

 

[Jordan Belfort]

Can I do the moscow route also with ultra-sound bath without causing a explosion (to increase reaction rate and stirring) ?

 

[G.Patton]

How ultrasound can cause an ignition?

 

[Jordan Belfort]

Creates local hotspots, thats how it's red phosphorus but I will try small

 

[robertlouis]

Thanks Expert

 

[Mr.Blanks00]

hello, sir, sorry, I want to ask whether the final product of this method is also DL racemic methamphetamine or not, please explain.
