how do you know reaction 2b4mp with methylamin is over?

layer separation + a slight color change

Sorry for the late reply
In the first photo, you can see the freebase oil on top. You need to extract it with apolar solvent (like benzene here but you could use EtOAc too by example).
Seeing the photos, I think you are talking about steps 2 and 3 not 1-2. If you added the acid already, then this "residue" is mostly mephedrone. If you didn't yet it's quite strange. Could be unreacted 2B4M but that's a lot.
When did the precipitate formed ?

You could also purify the mephedrone via the bisulfite adduct very easily and cheaply
dissolve the meph in whatever then add bisulfite sol and filter

from 50g of 2b4mp I got only 15g of product before crystallization, quite dissapointing. What steps could I take to improve that? thanks

If its your first time and its pretty pure no matter the yield it is a success in my eyes and you have done well.
Steps id take would be dont follow writeups make your own cos they always seem to fuck up molar weights n basic shit on here.
(PS: if you need help with that i can teach you how to figure it out for yourself )
I dont know every exact step you did so i couldnt say but id try extracting everything once more you will probably get another little crop maybe 5g or so.
(Always extract more!!!)
:3 ^w^
give me more info either here or indms and i can help better eg starting reagents and basically all other details
