My god, where do i start
First i will say that no meth synth is easy, ESPECIALLY anything resembling a birch reduction. Notice i said 'resembling' and that is pushing it!
Your reagent molar ratios are WAYYY OUT!
IF you were using Suzy FB, then the ratio would be 2 parts Li, 1 part suzy FB! If you have Suzy HCl, then you will need MORE Li!
By reading your text, I assumed you actually added batteries to your Nh3/Suzy...that makes you sound DUMB!
3x Batteries will give you 3x Li strips which weigh under 3g! This means you were reacting 1 PART Li, 10 PART SUZY!!
Technically it wasnt even 1 part Li, but for obvious reasons i will express it this way..FOR YOU!
Therefore i bet your 28.5g of crystals consists of unreduced Suzy, which amounts to a GREAT BIG FAILURE!
I will not even bother to point out what else is wrong with your sorry synthesis! You say this info was given to you, but i cannot understand why swiYOU would undertake such a task without researching it first! You are extremely stupid and you should consider yourself lucky that you are still fuckin breathing!! If you copped a whiff of that anhydrous Nh3, then you WOULD NOT be breathing!
THINK BEFORE YOU ACT
