Are you tired of broken Pyrex glass? Are you tired of smelling fucking fumes? And are you tired of wasting solvents? Well, fear no more, ADDkid got a brand new invention, which he does not believe as be talked about.
First, you need to know what an aspirator is. This is a tool that connects to the sink. It has three ways. One way screws into the sink, one way lets out water, and the last way is a nipple to connect a tube. Once it is connect to the sink, connect the tube, and then connect that tube to a stopper that has a glass tube going into it. Now put that stopper on a flask that has a nipple on it. This is you water trap, or you organic solvent collector. Take another tube, and connect it to the bottom of a Buckner funnel. Now pour you solvent that has your product in it, into a small beaker, smaller than the funnel. Now put the water trap in an ice bath. Next turn on the sink. Now heat the beaker, and put the funnel on top of the beaker. As the solvent begins to boil, the aspirator will create an vacuum that will 1.) Lower the boiling point, and 2.) All the solvent that escapes much faster. Plus the bonus part is the fact that the solvent will be collected into the flask that is sitting in the ice bath. This can be reused. Also you don’t have to have a bucker funnel, any should work. ADDkid
