2nd batch made, quality is top notch, testers preferred it over the circulating mdma pills.
One issue though is that 50g of 52190 was used and only 7 gr of end product acquired. It may be that we have been using methylamine hcl mixed with sodium hydroxide in the dcm solution, probably too much methylamine gas escaping. 40% methylamine solution is still on the way so yield might improve by then. Haven't been doing extraction from the aqueous layer as well so that explains it too. Would using a magnetic stirrer also lead to inferior output?
Edit: I also end up adding HCl directly into the DCM with freebase solution after drying with sodium sulfate. Should the DCM be evaporated with vacuum then the HCl with acetone be added, how will this lead to a different outcome from the method I have been doing so far?
Another thing I'm curious about, how do you do layer separation with buckets? I understand with smaller amount it can be done with separatory funnel, but with buckets it does seem to be trickier to pull it off correctly.
