I must admit i have been out of the scene for years, 3 in fact,.
Is P-benzo suspicious now?
I am assumeing it is, but is that the reality?

Can't bee the world production to the photoindusti is huge.

There seems to be only one supplier that has this in stock in Australia,
100g for $44.00, does not come in larger quantities,.
hmmmm.
A little too expensive for my liking,.

Make it from hydroquinone, it doesn't look very difficult

Where is that benzo from hydroquinone preocedure? I remember it being at rhodiums but ever since that horrible lycaeum crash I have never been able to find it.

He does have a search engine ya know.

SWIM prefers the Hydroquinone, H2O2, I2 route. Costs less than 60$US a pound to make benzo.

Dude I don't know what it is but I have the shittiest times trying to find anything at ANY  search engine. Especially google.

I guess I just don't apply myself well enough. Guess if I did more than stare at these chemistry books on my desk I'd learn more basic and organic chemistry too huh??

Just about any photography supplier that sells any chems at all usually has at least hydroquinone. UTFSE!

I bought a kilogram of it about 6-7 months ago for ~$145ex. 

I know of many places here that still sell it in this quantity at this price, probably have to order it in though.

does anyone know if it might be possible to oxidize the hydroquinone
leftover from a p-benzo wacker without bothering the
PdCl2?

Also, would ozone be another possibility?

You got ripped. SWIM gets it for 11-14$ a pound, or about 25$ a kilo locally. Just visit your local photoshops and do some online comparison shopping. You'd be surprised with the price differences that vary with store genre.
