The two isomers, R and S, are chemically similar but not identical molecules. In other words, the R-isomer of a drug will not necessarily behave the same way as the S-isomer of the same drug when taken by a person. You could say that each isomer is like a different drug.

We'll consider mephedrone (4MMC) synthesis in this article. Dichloromethane (DCM) is used as a solvent. It has a low boiling point (~40 °C) and synthesis procedures take a little time.
Work conditions:
Air temperature 20-24 ºC;
Relative humidity <60%;
Well-ventilated room (with air...
