no SWIM was thinking of a tryp with a low, low dosage so is concerned about yields and loss.
SWIM will have limited quantities, so the first shot has got to bee it. No room for error.
SWIM has read another set of posts about this RC and does not want to bee flamed in the same manner, so is sticking to questions of a general, non-specific nature about commonalities shared by many tryps if not all.
To kill the goose that lays the golden eggs is not what SWIM is about.
SWIM is somewhat familiar with the properties of phens, but tryps are still a learning experience, hence the Newbee Forum.
Perhaps these questions are better answered in another forum?
SWIM has learned so far that:
1) tryps are more difficult to work with than phens
2) recrystallizations are often subject to considerable loss
3) salt formation is often an arduous if not impossible task
4) the techniques and reagents employed in the syntheses involving tryps are often a little beyond the average Newbee
5) tryps are much less forgiving than phens with respect to errors of omission, stoichiometry, technique, and acquisition.
I choose not to reveal the project compound on the grounds that to do so would, ICHO, jeopardize the project unneccessarily. SWIYs should bee able to discern my goal without much more discourse.
SWIM just hope SWIM has made SWIM's case successfully.
