but guafenesin (whose true name is Guaiacol Glyceryl ether) has no amino group in it. So in an acid-base extraction, it will not come through.

Your friends are dopes. Separating guifenesin from ephedrine is easy, and it has been a standard recipe in my books for years. It (guifensesin) doesn't dissolve in naptha, camper fuel, or other hydrocarbons. Now I must go to let the heat get back to normal again, and begin work on my next book.
