So, I've got this bottle of phenethylamine and I'm wonderin':  Are there any good uses for this shit besides oxidizing to phenyl acetic acid?  Yea, I've looked around already so this is a bit of a desperation act.

something for your mind.......

It may be interesting to use as the amine to condense with phenylacetone?
Who knows what the product would bee, but i'll put my money on it being active in some way

Michael reaction with ethyl acrylate, then condense it to N-phenethyl-4-piperidone, a good starting material for fentanyl synthesis.
