Title: MDA by Al/Hg reduction of MDP2P Oxime
Post by: Pots on July 20, 2004, 07:41:00 AM
I've failed on several occasions with Antibody's recipe. I figure that in order to save on chemicals I have only been working at 10% scale until I have a win. Apart from that I have stuck strictly to the recipe. I can't help wondering whether by scaling everything down to 10% I've fucked it up. Would appreciate some tips on the matter.

Tip #1:

Give some actual details on your experience so that someone can start to think about what might have gone wrong.  I don't think anybody here can read minds.

Thanks for your help guys buy I figured out where I fucked up. It's OK to scale everything down to do a smaller scale reaction but if u scale down the Hg2Cl2 also it won't be enough to activate the Al. It's pretty obvious to me now but I spent days fucking around making the same mistake until until I finally got it right.
