OTC acetyl chloride

demorol:
perhaps a foolish question but..  where abouts can elemental sulfur be found over-the-counter?


Try gardening stores. Where I live it is sold in 5kg bags. It is used as some kind of plant protection, so the bugs don't eat them. ;)

ApprenticeCook:
sulphur is the easy part.... chlorine is easy but nasty... so if someone could comment on yei's thought about the replacement of chlorine with TCCA?

-AC

Drug_Phreak:
Sulphur can also be found in many brewing shops as it's used in the wine making process. This sulphur is generally of a high quality too.

jboogie:
the first bottle of sulphur swijb got was from the local pharm. i think its sold as a disinfectant, but im not sure of all its prescribed usages.
gardening suppliers also carry it. there are a few devices that vaporize sulphur to inhibit bug reproduction in green houses.

Nicodem:
You can buy kilos of sulfur in the gardening store, but not the one for burning and disinfecting with SO2 as that usually comes on paper stripes. You should ask for sulfur for spraying vineyards (I can't remember which fungus it is used against). You might want to purify it though, as it is of very "technical" grade (>80% purity where I live).

Yei: Could this mean that a mixture of S and TCCA would also work?

No. I tried TCCA+S+AcOH time ago. There is a very exothermic reaction and a nasty yellow reaction mixture forms with cyanuric acid precipitate clogging everything. I guess the foul garlicky smell of that yellow stuff is S2Cl2 but as far as I know S2Cl2 does not react with AcOH. Maybe it would work if you use a mixture of AcOH and anhydrous sodium acetete which can react with S2Cl2.
