Separation of GBL and NMP

Separation of GBL and NMP (N-methylpyrrolidinone) has been discussed before, plug in a few of these synonyms in TFSE and see for yourself.

NMP/GBL/dimethylmaleate separation

The same thing holds true for NMP as for dimethylmaleate - after complete hydrolysis to the free acids, only the GHB re-esterifies with ease in a slightly acid aqueous solution, forming GBL (which can then be steam distilled off), while the amino-acid from NMP and the maleic acid stays in their acid form and will be pretty non-volatile.

Oh, would you care to tell the audience which forum the extraction of GBL from a cleaning mixture should be placed, if not in

sorry - but you asked for it!

You specifically asked for the reason why some bee thought the discussed topic belonged elsewhere - and I thought since nobody replied during the last few months, I would be allowed to post my opinion about the subject... :(

In case it was irony; why didn't you use a smiley then? (

Anyway: if you think a thread is too old to take up any more useful information - why don't you just close it??
