(1/1)
thermite:
Since the old board is down and cannot presently been searched...in Total synth II there was a brief mention of the plant hoja santa as a possible source for safrole.

What climate do these babies grow in? Are they a perenial or a annual?
I imagine they could be refluxed with ethanol or methanol even DCM for extraction then simply distill results keeping the fraction boiling at 232C.
Also known as antibody
