Evaporating everclear soln. for insufflated dosing?

If one had a 2C* in everclear solution and left a measured dose out to evaporate, this would leave nothing but the dry 2C* compound, correct? Could one then insufflate the dose safely? I imagine the compound may clump up and need to be chopped finely to be snortable, but beyond that is there any reason this would not work? Would the compound be lost along with the evaporated ethanol somehow? Would the everclear leave any residue that would be dangerous to insufflate?

I asked this on a 2C* megathread but the question itself is not specific to the compound and I'm worried it'll get lost in the shuffle of that thread.
 
with that trouble just drink the liquid

if your concerned about saving material, plug it


although it escapes me how >10mg of something can hurt to snort. . .
 
I've bumped a tiny amount of 2C-E, and yeah, it burns like a bitch. Probably the worst of any chemical I've railed, in fact, but I hear it's much more intense with a much quicker onset and at least one experienced -E-head whose advise I value tells me I should try it out, so I'd like to try at least one proper insufflated dose. It's also just good to know that this method works in general for preparing insufflated doses - it's pretty easy to evaporate a couple mL of everclear, and it allows for very precise volumetric dosing.
 
nah i havent tried it, i trust the consensus report

but its still confusing

any idea as to why it burns so much for such a small amount of powder?
 
Oh it's certainly got a lot more kick when snorted. I just don't like tripping when it feels like I've been snorting napalm cut with ground glass and spiky things. Spending an hour flushing out your nose to try to make the pain go away is rarely a good start to a trip I find - was the only shitty 2C-E trip yet. Some folks seem to have asbestos noses but I'll be sticking with me plugging for a better rush without the pain for the foreseeable - behinds are the way forward for 2C's, I tells ya :D
 
i cant get over the grossnes factor for plugging
ill stick with oral and sublingual doses
possibly IV in the future
 
Body hangups are weird, eh? I'll take the napalmy fire of death in my nostrils any day over giving myself a phenethylamine enema. I'm sure the latter is probably less unpleasant objectively speaking, but it just seems... Ick. Blame heteronormative western culture if you will, but my ass is a one way street. My nose, on the other hand, is an open doorway.

Plugging is weird at first, but eventually you do get used to it.

The drug won't be lost; it simply will "reappear" as powder. Place the 2CE on a flat plate (increase surface are: quicker) with a fan on low near it. It should take too long to evap...
 
Truth be told, the ethanol will probably evaporate rather quickly, especially with a fan lightly blowing over it. Its the small percentage of water in the everclear that will take a while to evaporate, water has a pretty high specific heat and is not very volatile at all.

Interesting factoid: distilling liquor can only provide ~96% pure ethanol, because water and ethanol form an azeotrope-- any further refinement of the ethanol must be done by means other than distillation. :)
 
It depends with these compounds if they pass the nasal membrane fast or not. There are lingering burns and penetrating burns and superficial burns and brief ones, etc. Some stuff is just more caustic than others.
Lyes and acids can just eat through your flesh so why can't these drugs.

What I'm not sure about is the origin of harmful properties with 2C-X but I guess its pretty
basic as a quaternary amine?

Plus: the dissociation must be an exothermic reaction when the salt dissolves into your bodily fluids.
 
Solipsus, I thought these chemicals are binded to a Hydrochloride salt. Im not a chemistry major or graduate. But that is what I am presumed to believe. That why they burn. Its 2c-x binded to a HCL in salt form.
 
Cocaine is typically distributed as a hydrochloride salt as well but doesn't come close to comparing with 2C burn.
 
^Well cocaine is also a local anesthetic, so its probably not the best compound to compare to. There does seem to be more to the 2C-x burn than simply the dissociation of the salt ions they're bound to, but that's just a guess on my part.
 
snorting 2c's must do serious damage or something , it hurts so fuckin bad

i feel as if some of my nose tissue has disappeared because of it

snorted alot of other stuff too tho , so who knows.
 
Honestly, IMing 2c-E didn't hurt at all...I haven't snorted any 2c's but I would avoid that ROA for obvious reasons.

2C-D is the only 2c (that I have snorted) that isn't like snorting fire mixed with snake venom and lava and sulphuric acid and 48 lit matches.

2C-E is like fire mixed with bears teeth and blue-bottle jellyfish tentacles. But worse.

:D

I'd say 2C-D is like snorting meth. The only others I've sniffed are 2C-E, 2C-C and 2C-B. Ouch.
