Hi gang - made some freebase today:
Can anyone give their opinions just from looks?
https://ibb.co/7k4QrxN
Appreciate there's only so far a gander can help but it looks different from the first time I tried, but this time used more powder to begin with
Method - used ammonia to convert to freebase, then added hexane, a lot of precipitate stayed undissolved, then heated at 50'c in waterbath and everything dissolved. Then water washed the hexane in a funnel multiple times. Separated the hexane layer after and evaporated to give my freebase. Freed the crystals from the side of the beaker with a razor which is why they the chunks look smooth on one side - but it just looks different from first time.
Any feedback appreciated!
