I am interested in trying the method on rhodium's site to change morphine to hydromorphone, I was looking at using the acid, morphine, and palladium black method. I need some information (help me Rhodium, please) and all valid input is greatly desired, do i have to change the morphine to a freebase before disolving in alcohol I was going to use isopropal alcohol the morphine sulphate and the palladium black reflux it and hopefully get hydromorphone from the result, without freebasing the morphine is this possible???
