Green/brown from simons?

[TheAzo]

I'm testing two samples of supposed 6-APB. I've determined that they are NOT the same compound from the standard reagents.

I'm having trouble interpreting the simons result though. It changed to a greenish brown - i thought it was supposed to turn blue.
Have others seen this behavior before?

Robadope was positive for primary amine.

Sounds like what you're testing is a primary amine. Primary amines generally don't react to simon's reagent, since simon's checks for secondary amines verified by the blue color change. I am not sure what you're testing or how it should test, but I know what you are testing is probably some kid of primary amine substance.

Expected result is negative to simons (no sec amine), positive to robadope (primary amine present).

On some research, it seems non-blue colors from simons are negative. So this dirty brown-green is a negative.

Yes. It's either blue or it's not
