Well perhaps he is wrong, but it is not listed on the list of "watched" chemicals on rhodiums site. LAH is. He is not necessarily worried about it simply being watched, as he has many friends that have nothing illegal in there homes who will buy it for him, rather he worries that he will try to order a product that the company will refuse to sell him. He knows that they will sell him sodium cyano, but from what others have said about about LAH it seems as if most companies will not sell it. There is even a quote in one of zwitterions writeups on rhodiums page where he makes a comment on how it is very hard to get, and he was using what little bit he had to make 2cb. Am I mistaken? Surely my friend would like to send a buddy in to order some if he believes that it possible they will sell it to him, this he was not sure of though.
