Yes but reducinx the reflux time lead to a purer product maybe less weight in the end ,refluxed 10min after storm réaction like he said not 30 ans my paste is good and off white straight out of synthesis
I succesfully done it you just need to lower the reflux time to 10-15min max paste was white didn't weight it but pretty low Yield as i don't have a condenser and a separatory funnel and mgso4 but this route can be improved
