i know this won't really effect the averidge user or pill tester but being a HUGE chem geek i was wondering...what does the reaction look like when the marquis reagent reacts with MDMA?
 
hopefully like this

and it is important that everyone knows this, not just geeks...
 
Yo
From one chem geek to another!
I'm assuming you're talking about the chemical mechanism (arrow pushing?) right?
I'm pretty sure that it has something to do with the fusing of the aromatic rings. Nothing else would account for a color change. I'm gonna go hit up the science library at my school when i get back and i'm gonna try to write a FAQ type thing for it.

That kinda makes sense, but in the marquis reagent there are no aldehydes, so i'm pretty sure that does not apply fully - but a similar reaction probably occurs. Look over here in the next few months and i'll post something nice :-)
peaceout

next time feel free to express yourself in as scientific terms as you'd like, as we have a hellova lot of smart people on this board... remember you aren;t getting charged per word you post, so often it's better to use 40 words to explain what you are getting at, than 4....
