De l'éphédrone à la méphédrone

[Anarchy Labz]

Est-il possible de convertir l'éphédrone en méphédrone ?

 

[PavelD]

Je ne sais pas si c'est le cas, mais je ne sais pas si c'est le cas, mais je ne sais pas si c'est le cas, mais je ne sais pas si c'est le cas, mais je ne sais pas si c'est le cas, mais je ne sais pas si c'est le cas.

C'est possible : Oui
Cela en vaut-il la peine ? Absolument pas.
Les agents de méthylation sont généralement des produits désagréables, ce qui est déjà une raison suffisante.

Methcathinone can be methylated using Methyl Iodide and Aluminum Chloride AlCl3 to get 3-MMC (3-Methylmethcathinone). The ketone part of the Methcathinone means no 2 or 4 substitution, but it directs it to the 3 substitution.

The question was different. To insert the methyl into an aromatic ring. It seems that there are methods to benzene halogenation, but I don't think that this is needed for someone.

I thought Ephedrone was Methcathinone (MC). It can be Methylated to 3-MMC, but not 4-MMC or 2-MMC.

How?

I've heard that methyl iodide can be used to synthesize 3-MMC from methcathinone. Is this accurate? I also came across claims that formaldehyde and formic acid can be used for the same purpose, but I’m skeptical. From what I understand, formaldehyde and formic acid are typically used to add a methyl group to the amine portion of a molecule, such as in the synthesis of methamphetamine from amphetamine or MDMA from MDA. However, they wouldn’t be able to methylate the aromatic ring, correct?
