Hello guys and girls.
The plan is to do an Alprozolam extraction and was looking for advice and criticism on my procedure i thought out. Please note that this is the first procedure that i wish to do that i have not read in a book or online.
So my plan was to look on the msds and create a solubility table on excel. Which looks like this.
And then from this my plan was to crush the tablets and dissolve into ethanol then filter out the non soluble chemicals and evaporate the ethanol, After this rinse with distilled water and add enough water to dissolve the Docusate Sodium and the Sodium benzoate and then filter out the alprozolam and then put in a drying oven.
Does this seen like a proper procedure the achieve the goal?
Thanks for your help in advance.
