Full MDA Synthesis Starting from Helional

If switching to toluene, would any adjustments have to be made? Or can you stick to the same recipe, just switching out toluene for dcm? Thanks

Is the toluene will be used in the process of extraction?

 

[Rox2]

Yes You can

Nice job, from mda to mdma is easy or dificult?

 

[GhostChemist]

if you have inert gas (N2 or Ar) synthesis not difficult

And methyl iodide?

 

[ukises]

I have read it but it takes 4 days the process

 

[GhostChemist]

did not understand your question

 

[ukises]

.i mean the reaction from mda to mdma is of 4 days , maybe another way??

 

[GhostChemist]

from mda only 4 days and only with LAH

question, how stable amide (α-Methyl-1,3-benzodixole-5-propanamide) is?
Is this substation suitable for long term storage?

 

[GhostChemist]

this substance is stable for long term storage

Are we supposed to combine the 1000ML of DCM we use to quench the RXN (Fig. 39) with the DCM that is used to extract the aquous solutions? I am getting very low yeild on the 3rd step and I am not sure why. I think it may be due to the fact the I combined them when I was not supposed to. Please help. Thank you.

Use tcca then you got 60 porcent yield
