Hi there guys,
I know I have been asking a lot of questions recently. I’m a newb…iv obviously invested A LOT of money into this hobbit and I have been looking into TLC.
I have ALWAYS said, I do not do chemistry en-mass, to sell - unlike most people on here and so it’s a waiting game when I need something for the lab, however, I have finally reached the stage where I can start exploring some tertiary amines from the 500g tryptamine that I have.
I think TLC is going to be a big factor in me working out if the RXN has completed.
Now my question is this - do I 100%, un-negotiability need a 0.25% NaCIO resolving spray?
I obviously do own bleach as a cleaner, however it obviously has other stuff in and would need to be distilled and I’m guessing that’s going to be an ass due to the fact I’m going to pull all the water with it and won’t know the concentration. I can’t find any pre-made spray obviously.
Can someone explain what the spray actually does? I’v been looking at This REALLY useful info and he says to use a 0.25% sodium hypochlorite solution.
One more question - what do I use as the wick? Will watercolour paper do the trick? Or does it have to be a specific material - it doesn’t really say and is pretty much the only thing it doesn’t tell you.
I obviously don’t have any references due to the fact I am just a dude with no official lab and so their findings are a useful comparative photo, however, I’ll mainly be using it to ascertain the rxn has finished…
Thanks guys!
