BDB / "J" Synthesis
« on: September 25, 2004, 01:01:00 AM »
here is the original synthesis, but in german for

2-amino-1-(3,4-methylendioxyphenyl)-butan

I try to translate it in english:

-to a  solution of 5g (33.3 mol) of piperonal in 10 ml Nitropropan, is added 0.25 ml n-Butylamin and 0.25 ml acetic acid,

- it is heated at 140C then refluxed at this temperature  for 3h,

-it is concentrated under 60C and 1mbar

-the yielding oil is diluted under a bit heating with 7 ml Methanol

-it is cooled down at -15C and filtrated at this temperature

-add 3 ml methanol then heat it will be heated 50C and vakuum dried.

What should be done, then it is impossible for a Ghetto-Chemist to produce 1mbar

Please answer simply, and explain that non-chemist understand it[-

No body knows what to do, i thought here are at least a few Chemists?

how to extract bdb
« Reply #3 on: September 30, 2004, 03:32:00 PM »
Has somebody the Monography of BDB?

Does somebody know how to clean it with a destilation or Acid/Base extraction?

Piperonal and 1-Nitropropane method
« Reply #5 on: October 19, 2004, 12:51:00 AM »
Shulgin writes that the Piperonal and 1-Nitropropane method gave "unsatisfactory yields".

I can't find the yeild results for this method anywhere. I understand that it may give yeild results Shulgin was not happy with, but for a newbee it may be worthwhile to look into.

Does anyone have the write-up for this method with results?

UTFSE for "Piperonal Nitropropane"

Thank you very much Rhodium.

Thank you very much Rhodium. Your knowledge never ceases to amaze me.

My question now is, could one use 3,4-Methylenedioxyphenyl-2-nitro-1-butene in place of 1-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)-2-butanone in the preparation of J?

Also, how is the iron and acid reduction of the appropriate nitrostyrene carried out?

Shulgin writes:"the Efforts to prepare this ketone (I'm assuming 1-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)-2-butanone)  by the iron and acid reduction of the appropriate nitrostyrene (1-(3,4-methylenedioxyphenyl)-2-nitro-1-butene, mp 64-65 °C) were thwarted by the consistently unsatisfactory yield of the precursor from the reaction between piperonal and 1-nitropropane"

I think you need to UTFSE some more...

Naturally. It could be reduced by any of the numerous methods available for the reduction of nitroalkenes to amines. See for example the article I linked to in my last post or

Pihkal #100 (MDA)

(http://www.erowid.org/library/books_online/pihkal/pihkal100.shtml)

Also, how is the iron and acid reduction of the appropriate nitrostyrene carried out?

See for example the preparation of MDP2P from the nitrostyrene in
