    Can I get some eyes on these crystals?

    Whats this look like to you? I did a couple things. I heated ammonium chloride and formaldehyde with an alihn condenser and 110° turndown vacuum fitting on top and vacuum pump for a few hours and let it cool and filtered it. Then I distilled the liquid under vacuum for a couple hours and...

    Purification of Methylamine HCl

    Question 
    Just wondering what is the best way to purify methylamine created by reacting formaldehyde and ammonium chloride (which is at the end the only contaminate after dichloromethane and methanol wash). What I found was that the solubility in ethanol(pure) for methylamine is 29.1g/100g(at 78*C) and...

    Methylamine HCL from a nitromethane reduction?

    I am done with doing a formaldehyde and ammonium chloride synthesis of methylamine it's too dirty and dealing with ammonium chloride is hell. Does anyone have any experience successfully doing a fe/hcl reduction of nitromethane to the HCL salt? or something similar. It seems like an easy way to...
