Title: MDP2P to MDMA
Post by: dennispeck on July 08, 2003, 06:41:00 PM

Swim is curious when going from mdp2p to mdma and utilyzing PT IV(Adam's catalyst),hydrogen and methylamine gas if the methylamine gas can be replaced by methylamine HCL...?

Title: you need to use the more reactive freebase
Post by: Rhodium on July 09, 2003, 03:42:00 PM

No, you need to use the freebase, as it is more reactive. However, you can easily make a solution of methylamine gas in methanol, and use that in the reaction, so there is no need to handle the gas.

For the exact procedure, see
