We'll consider mephedrone (4MMC) synthesis in this article. Dichloromethane (DCM) is used as a solvent. It has a low boiling point (~40 °C) and synthesis procedures take a little time.
Work conditions:
Air temperature 20-24 ºC;
Relative humidity <60%;
Well-ventilated room (with air...
Reaction scheme:
Reagents:
4'-Methylpropiophenone (cas 5337-93-9) 5 kg;
Сooper(II) oxide (CuO) 2.7 kg;
Isopropyl alcohol (IPA) 50 l;
Iodine 6.5 kg;
Equipment and glassware:
100 L Batch reactor, which is equipped with drip funnel, top stirrer, thermometer, temperature control system...
Introduction
Mephedrone (4-MMC) synthesis reaction is carried out with production of some amount by-products. Also, some amount of unredacted precursor is left in the reaction mixture after reaction. It takes to purify a 4-MMC product with insufficient purity to reduce health risks.
