SWIM has a question. Has anyone ever started MM's
amination like it's supposed to be done. And came
back an hour and a half later to find that your
nitro/MDP2P/MeOH funnel was still 2/3 there and that
your Al/Hg had already completed it's RXN? Well I
did and I was like OH Shit what the hell did I do.
So I said well fuck I'm already screwed so I just
dumped the 2/3 rest of the mix into the RXN. Well
to my suprise (only my second amination) It started
a reflux that went all the way to the top of my two
400mm condenser's stacked upon eachother. Needless
to say I lost alot of MeOH through the top of them
No problam just added some more. My question is will
I get any product at all
Im going to let the mix
stir all night and see what happens tommrow. Has any
bee ever done this before???
