Does this really woek?

Does this synthesis really work?:

EPH synthesis:

2-Chloropyridine-3-boronic acid (for R&D) | CAS: 381248-04-0 | +98.0%

And

Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide 12% Solution Unstabilised & Additive Free - 1 Litre

And

96% ethanol

you'll need approx. 1.5 grams of chloropyridine, 15ml of hydrogen peroxide, and 50ml of ethanol. Mix them together, heat(30-40C) it and stir for 15-20 minutes, filter the EPH out.
Disolve the EPH in warm water and let it cool down this should form purer EPH crystals.

Did you get this recipe on chatgpt? I don't see how this is possible - you don't even have the right atoms in your reagents.

 

[pshcrmth]

agree, sounds like pushed AI generated that recipe.

This synthesis lacks critical details. No mention of reaction mechanism, stoichiometry, safety considerations, or purification steps beyond basic filtration. Simply mixing those chemicals as described is unlikely to yield reliable or pure EPH. For any chemical synthesis, especially involving precursors like chloropyridines, precise conditions, proper controls, and validated protocols are essential. Proceeding without that is risky and likely ineffective.

theres no nitrogen, therefor no amine therefor no ephedrine
