XXXchemist (check deja) suggested oxidation of ephedrine
with H2o2 and platinum catalyst.
This catalyst is availble at most pharmcies
The AOSept system, (contact lenses) all I found was a sprockit looking thingy
with a sticker to write the date of disposal on, but no instruction !!!
If this is platinum then its a fine powder on a plastic support
could this be used for either catalytic hydrogenation or electrolic reduction ?
or is that just to damn easy
oh yeah it cost 8 bucks ! sounds to cheap to me? maybe ya gota use a hundred of them?
well just a thought......
