it works i did 900 pills and 16 ml p-anhydride 5% sodium acetate and a sealed vessel usual conditions 100 c 3 hours evap the anhydride with a bow dryer that was it.
i did extract afterwards but parenteral administration worked great
i just felt so content laying in bed that's how it affected me,
so there you go easy peasy sodium acetate is not a toxin

what size dose were you taking jon, and how would you rate its potency/euphoria to say morphine/oxycodone

 as close as you could say in mgs?

900 pill = about 1.8 gms right?

Did you weigh your first extraction?

 how much did you lose through various means?

very interesting idea!

Does it provide a rush when used IV? In toady's experience, oxycontin or IR oxy doesn't...second thoughts, it does, but it is minimal, and compared to even oral morphia it is, while enjoyable, distinctly lacking in a rush.                                                                   

i forgot to mention i used a solvent until it was just a paste perchloroethylene.
i ran it again and forgot to mention that little detail because i was drugged up

yes but we already know they are'nt worth a damn
when i run reactions what i did previously automatically comes to mind hence i mentioned this because i forgot to used 3% (relative to the p-anhydride) catalyst this time and it worked.

therein lies your problem your incorporating water into the pill mass when you wash the coating off ruining your anhydride
also are you sure your sodium acetate is dry?
and not the trihydrate?
in the details therin lies the devil

yes that is freebase use methanol it's solubility in ipa is piss poor.
you can take that into a beaker and decolorize it with activated C as dopamine suggested,filter, evap methanol dissolve the base in tce or dcm wash with water, or filter of sodium acetate, separate phases, evap this, and then place in beaker with just a little water and heat, add your citric acid pinch by pinch until dissolves, i used to get pearl white crystal like that.
you can recrystallize in ipa.

Ok, so I had what I would call as a successful time with this procedure. Finally! I refluxed propionic anhydride /pill mass/ catalyst/ tce for 3 hrs at 100C in a corona bottle. Then I evapped the anhydride and tce, i treated the resulting green powder with a little boiling water. Then while the pill mass was still wet i extracted with methanol. filtered the methanol. The methanol was evapped and left a green oily substance. I then added 20-30 ml of warm h2o. I stirred the solution on low heat and added citric acid.  The oily green stuff disolved in water upon addition of the acid and was drunk.

Effects were noticed starting at about t+1hr and plateaued at around t+2.5 hrs and didn't taper off for around 6-7hrs pretty good opiate ime. Kratom seemed to potentiate it pretty good. Very nice experience, although I didn't shit for two days but when I did it didn't hurt. Which methadone constipation will do to me  (incase you are apprehensive about abusing anti diarrhea meds).

Somethings to keep in mind:

• When making the anhydride, the drier the better. ie dry ingredients and glass ware.
• Drier is better through the refluxing stage. Dry glass ware, make sure anhydride is really anhydride using a simple test. If dropped into h20 the p.a. will not dissolve immediately but will look like oil sinking to the bottom.
• Oral administration is a little weak and requires ingestion of 70-150 mg to get ya where ya wanna be.
• All of this can be done in the ghetto. Beer bottles, vinyl tubing, heet, duct tape etc worked for me.

Well it looks like they are using MIBK and diisopropyl ether to re xtalize.

Can I extract with methanol, evap, take up residue in water, add acetone to h20/lope mixture, and finally filter off crystals that formed?  These xtals are lope?

I must be missing something, but where and how would a sep funnel be involved. I use a ghetto buchner filter when filtering off the methanol.
