6-APB? Dark Green Mecke Reaction?

i've had 4 different samples of supposed 6-apb powder from 4 well respected vendors. the first 3 all tested to a somewhat dark green immediately with no color change using mecke and seemed to give effects in line with what they should, although we are going off a bunch of reports of who knows what given all the crap that has surrounded this chemical since it became available. i'm confident that all 3 are different synths.

the most recent batch tested a dark burgundy/black. i've seen so many different reactions for 6-apb or what is being represented as that, i don't know what to think. i'm not aware of any other compounds that test dark green with mecke. and sorry i don't have any other reagents. i've used the search function and i did look at the awesome thread with all of the reagent test results for lots of compounds. thanks for any help or input on how 6-apb should react with mecke and what the green stuff might be.

edit: just thought i'd add that there is a very different smell between the two different chems. the black has a pretty sweet smell where as the green ones have a very chemically smell. hard to break it down further than that but i figured it was worth mentioning.

potency, appearance and time between getting the samples. also the shades of green were slightly different. i'm sure it's at least 2 different synths and pretty confident it's 3.
 
i've always thought different batches are also referred to as different synths since it was a different run. are you saying that if the same lab produces different batches using the same process that they are not referred to as different synths? obviously it is possible that all three batches came from the same lab, although i'm not sure how likely.

As far as I'm aware 6-APB is supposed to turn black with Mecke and black/purple with Marquis. Those turning a dark green before were likely something other than 6-APB - unless the 6-APB is in pellets that contain green dye or something I'd be more than highly suspicious.
 
thanks for the input. do you have any guess as to what the green stuff could be? effects seem to be quite similar to what i've read and what you'd expect from compounds of that nature. i'm unaware of any compounds that test to any shade of green with mecke which really has me puzzled. thanks again.

i don't think so. i've only had one batch of 5-apb and it didn't turn anything close to green, but who's to say that was legit?

I would refer to a different synthesis as a different reaction scheme for creating the product, often with different starting reagents. Different batches would be using the same technique, at different times/labs/vendors/etc.
 
i figured that was what you meant. i guess that's just how a lot people refer to diff. batches on other communities that i frequent.
 
My mecke reaction was dark green, almost black it was so dark, but definitely had a green tint. Marquis was a burgundy purple color. Have not tested the batch by any other means but it was purchased from a supposedly reputable vendor with other high quality products.
 
i certainly wouldn't consider any of my green reactions to be that dark, kind of forest green like. the black reaction had a more burgundy/purple tint. thanks for the input and good luck.
 
possible i suppose but i know in regards to mdxx type substances that it has the proper reaction if any amount of one of those substances is present (from what i've read). who knows? i'm kind of giving up on the whole thing. thanks for the input from everyone.
