Hello hello, fellow underground chemists, amateurs and illegal professionals, hobbyists, curious individuals and other shades of shady.
I've done my fair share of plant extractions with great success, going to various lengths to secure my own personal (and generous, hey, I live to give) stash of mind-benders and the like, I find myself wanting to up my chemistry game and return-on-investment. While I do enjoy the crystalline fruits of my plant-extracting labour, there are bigger challenges and greater fruits to be had and this forum is where I intend on arming myself with the practical knowledge that will allow me to create said fruits.
Two main factors drive my synthesis explorations:
a) it musn't raise ANY alarm bells whatsoever. Fly under the radar as low as possible. Synthesize precursors to precursors. Grow precursor-containing plants if need be.
b) it must be as safe as possible. Settle for a safer reaction, a less volatile or dangerous solvent/reagent, that sort of thing.
My aim is to strike a balance somewhere between the two.
I try to take every precaution possible but realize that mistakes can creep in, this is usually due to ignorance. Hanging out here and running thorough hypotheses by experienced minds is usually a good place to start, it helps having more eyes to criticize.
I understand that synthesis is a much bigger ballgame than standard plant extractions. There's so much more theory to absorb, more precautions to take, more glassware to obtain, hotter heat from the government, bigger considerations to take in. Law enforcement suck when it comes to our beloved syntheses. Once you get stung they don't like to let you forget you fucked up.
I have a lot experience in computer programming and software design to draw from and its my pipe dream (no pun intended, seriously) to one day build a community-based, modular synthesis engine that allows a user to find a viable synthesis route to a chemical based on a set of given parameters like solvent availability, glassware, precursors, that kind of thing.
Abstract schematics have been drawn up but its a long way off yet.In fact the sooner I build a prototype the sooner I can start using it and stop wasting time constantly cross-checking rhodium and TSII and other chemical references to find viable routes based on precursor availability.
Thats my bit
Hopefully I come across humble. I don't expect to make any great advances in underground chemistry but I do look forward to contributing and learning a lot and sharing my experiences for other people to glean information from.
Peace
