Phenethylamines How can I purify 2C-B at home?

sh1vambuDancer said:
fair

but 2c-x are a different matter. can't see why it wouldn't be pure. in powder form, particularly.

but fair point.

Where I live all the connects step on everything like it's a grotty roach. Most 2CB is pills but others sling capsule powder crying it's "pure". And then you get flush and it's pink powder tuci.

What I'm really asking about is purifying real 2CB powder from synthesis contamination. If you read the thread there is prime guidance from ddigital.

yeah gotcha i read it. banging stuff; I'd love to give a synthesis ago; bucket list.

not sure what the market's like now, but i used to have an awesome 2c-b plug for grams, ounces...

Market is blotto squeeze rag now mate. If only I had spent the money on phenylethalamines in 2010 instead of whiskey well then, I'd have several milli in drugs.

how to say you don't understand his chemistry spiel...without explicitly saying it.🤔🤨🙄🚩💯🚨


NNNOW i re-read what i skimmed before.
how to purify:
to reiterate, look into washes,
acid to base conversion, and back to acid salt.
recrystallize.
all can be done simply.

why are we even mentioning 2c-h?!🤔🤨😅
NSFW:

Can you chemistry-understanding people take a look at the common route(s) of making 2C-B and determine what these bromine side compounds might be?

come on dude, i know you may have trouble conceding (or apologizing), but give it a go, you might actually learn something.
i read his ideas. fair play
dude doesn't fuck around.
he def ain't making cid, but i bet he'd give molly or 2c-x a go. i got a bit to go, but at least i know what he's talking about.

"relatively volatile" vs. volatile.
"relative to what exactly?" would've been good instead of probably - apparently? - strawmanning hard.
just a thought

again, you may learn something.

never heard of brown 2c-b; and 2c-b is popular, they aren't gonna generally put out shite, just coz it's not as popular.
if it's brown, it prob grabbed hold of some impurities while crashing out; and the chemists just didn't clean it.

never seen brown, or dirty 2c-b, or any badly produced drugs, for the matter, besides once or twice i saw dark coloured MDMA about 15 years ago, and about 10 years ago had some cocaine someone hadn't cleaned; petrol burn back of the throat. grim.

all the 2c-b i seen was fine waxy oily crystalline powder, not as fine as 2c-i, or 2c-e, but slightly matte; a few batches, slightly pink.
from canada.
nederlands chemists are good, i can't imagine them dumping brown trash on the streets.

Edit:
ok, so apparently it's actually common, and it's the bromine.
not side compounds, b for bromine. 2c-bromine, dude.
"Brown 2C-B powder on the black market is primarily caused by residual bromine or minor synthesis impurities from the production of the hydrobromide (HBr) salt. While pure 2C-B is colorless, the bromination step used to create the HBr salt can leave behind trace amounts of liquid bromine, which imparts a tan, pinkish, or light brown hue to the final powder.

The discoloration typically stems from:

  • Residual Bromine (Br2Br2): Unreacted bromine used during the synthesis of 2C-B hydrobromide is the most common cause of brown/tan coloring.
  • Incomplete Purification: The powder may not have been adequately washed (e.g., with acetone or GAA) or recrystallized to remove these byproducts.
  • Salt Variation: While pure 2C-B hydrochloride (HCl) is also white, the hydrobromide (HBr) form is more frequently associated with slight discoloration if not rigorously purified".

you either get hydrobromine salt, or hydrochloride,
like
other salts to finish:
fumarate, citrate, sulfate, chloride, hydrochloride, etc. yada


hydrochlorides do end up being much more stable, much better conversion, much cleaner white crystals.

i love my chatbot; it actually helps me troubleshoot my synthesis teks somehow; only when i use german VPN so far; it refuses otherwise!


also, now I've said that about the hydrochloride salts, what he said about losses from "relatively volatile freebases" makes sense;
they oxidize and are more volatile at lower temps than salts.

ice bath makes sense. losses are negligible really, but you don't want to lose any, if you are a stickler.

whoever *ahem* dismissed him, just coz it sounded a bit AI, you're a fucking idiot. who maybe yourself didn't pass high school chem. lol
freebase DMT doesn't keep for anywhere near as long as DMT sulfate, or fumarate; it's better to convert small amounts


sounds like you need to get some new connects; dark web.
go with my rule: only buy off the dark web, never resell on the web, & you good.

ideally get a plug who uses the dark web & saves you the trouble of getting ripped.
i always had plugs for most of my rx buys;
only a few times bought 2c-e & -i myself, and 4-aco-DMT; which was totally different to the matte 4-aco-Dmt i originally got only a sampler from;
i shared it about, and it was honestly one of my fave drugs experiences; great for music, dancing, sensual as fuck, and the plants all had faces and were happy to see me.
very different from the "4-aco" i bought from my chinese plug before they shut up shop.
can't even remember what they were called;
used to come in the post, in a foil envelope, in a brown envelope, with a hellow kitty sticker on the back. 🤔💓⚡

Grok, aint nobody using grok
I use the Ai for the mathematical stoich corrections making sure my chem math is right

and btw, i was a chem major in college, did the calc 1 calc2 genchem1 genchem2 and into organic chem before they threw my ass out

got the transcripts from college if ya wanna check me again

sorry I couldn't comprehend any of this I got too dumb looking at this pile of bullshit.

I'm sorry I can't help it I'm

For him its spelled either
Phenethylamine
OR
Phenylethylamine

In fact, if you look at each post thread topic you have to pick what kind or type it is, i believe it is listed. Easier would just be an abbreviation, PEA

its not a typo as you said.

arylcyclohexamine arylcyclohexanamine arylcyclohexylamine

so subtle no one got it

Didnt know you spoke for everyone.
So you being psychic, think, extractions were allowed. What about purifying a compound extracted from an otc product cleanup?

exactly, dont even bother
thats why youre not getting any scientific replies just jabs and basic talk
its because the info is good
but once again im here to drop clandestine stuff and get lil real scientific feedback and cross referenced information learn some shit before i get back into gettin a chem degree somewhere

ya cool in my opinion edit that shit back in

Instead of following up to one of my replies, i will edit and add I suppose.
Perhaps someone was the smartest kid in fifth grade, they should be, having been there 3 years running.
 
I did some cleanup, if anyone thinks there should be more report the post and tell me what number the post is that should be deleted.

There is some good info in here, and I get it, the conversation can be like playing poker around a table, but name calling or bs posts will be deleted. And it helps to stay on topic.

Reopened.

He doesn't know what the impurities are.

WASHING 2C-B

Step 1) Go buy epsom salts (Magnesium Sulfate)
Step 2) Go buy acetone from the hardware store.
Step 3) Cook the epsom salts in a baking dish in oven at high heat for at least 3 hours with occasional stirring.
Step 4) Dry the acetone by placing the anhydrous magnesium sulfate in the acetone and swirling for 15 minutes or just leaving in the acetone overnight.
Step 5) Filter out the magnesium sulfate with a coffee filter.
Step 6) Crush the 2C-B into a fine powder
Step 7) Place the crushed 2C-B into a small glass
Step 8) Pour in some acetone into the glass
Step 9) stir the 2C-B and acetone
Step 10) filter out the 2C-B using a coffee filter
Step 11) Allow the acetone to evaporate off the 2C-B.

Explanation: If you don't dry the acetone with the cooked magnesium sulfate then you can expect losses. 2C-B-HCL is virtually insoluble in acetone. However, if the acetone is wet (has any water in it) then 2C-B HCL will dissolve and you will lose it in the solution. Cooking the magnesium sulfate drives off water and turns the magnesium sulfate anhydrous. When anhydrous magnesium sulfate is placed into acetone, it will absorb any water that is in the acetone.
If there are any soluble impurities they will go into the acetone while the 2C-B HCL does not. You can evaporate the acetone afterwards to see if there is any residue (impurities).


RECRYSTYALLIZATION USING ANHYDROUS ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL (Optional)

Step 1) Crush the 2C-B into a fine powder
Step 2) Place the 2C-B into a glass or mason jar
Step 3) Safely bring 99% (anhydrous) isopropyl to a boil
Step 4) Add the boiling isopropyl alcohol to the glass until the 2C-B is completely dissolved
Step 4) Place the glass into the freezer and leave overnight
Step 5) Filter out any crystallized 2C-B using a coffee filter

Explanation: This process is pretty explanatory. 2C-B HCL is slightly soluble in boiling isopropyl alcohol and the impurities tend to be more soluble in it. So you get everything into solution, and then cool it causing the 2C-B to precipitate out while the impurities stay in solution. It works great after washing to reconstitute the 2C-B into a more crystalline form, and also helps to remove impurities. If there is much color to the isopropyl afterwards, you pulled that color from the powder.

RECRYSTALLIZATION USING DISTILLED WATER AND ACETONE (optional)
Step 1) crush the 2c-b into fine powder
Step 2) place the 2C-B into a small mason jar
Step 3) add small amounts of hot distilled water until the 2C-B is completely dissolved.
Step 4) Add small amounts of acetone until the solution starts to cloud
Step 5) Add just enough water for it to clarify again
Step 6) Place jar into freezer and leave overnight.

Explanation: 2C-B HCL is soluble in water, especially hot water. It is insoluble in acetone. By dissolving it in water, and then adding just the right amount of acetone, the acetone acts as an antisolvent and allows the 2C-B to crystallize into beautiful crystals.



2C-B HCL is usually made during a 2nd purification step and is often quite pure as is. How necessary is it to wash it? It's probably not but some people want to KNOW their drugs are as pure as possible.

If this process is too complicated then I don't know what to tell you.

So my friend did the acetone process and apparently a lot of brown liquid came off! The powder went from brown to beige. So thank you 🥳 Loss was 15%.

Do you have any recommendations for 2CB HbR? I'm guessing the solubility is different.
