I think something wrong with graph.
If you use L+-tartaric acid(cheaper and easier to find)the D enantiomer(amph,Meth) will be in the solution not in the solid as there appears.
If you use D-tartaric acid(more expensive and difficult to find) the D enantiomer(amph,Meth) will be in the solid.
Thanks.

P.S. same for methamphetamine.

UWe9o12jkied91dI applied pictures there (pic 18). We will make a video with d-isomer separation to explain it. I think a lot of same questions will be there after video =)
G.PattonWhat do you mean under pic 18.
"We precipitate d-amphetamine with an additional amount of d-tartaric acid". I thought the d tartaric acid you used crashed the l amphetamine d tartaric salt out. How is it going to precipitate the d amphetamine left in the solution?
oscar412D-tartric leaves the desired enantiomer in solution, your solid is now your waste in this case, opposite for L-tartaric (the common one), you then precipitate with your desired acid. During both these processes you will arrive at the sulphate or phosphate, as the tartrates are not storeable
UWe9o12jkied91dI understand that. But if you read the procedure that is posted , here it is.
"Extract with 5 ml of petroleum ether and warm the solution, add 2.45 g of d-tartaric acid in alcohol solution to the mixture. Then add alcohol until completely dissolved and cool with stirring. The l-amphetamine d-tartaric salt precipitates. The d-amphetamine remains in the solution. You can repeat procedure of cleaning precipitate of l-amphetamine d-tartaric salt by methanol to increase yield."
This next bit i am talking about .
"We precipitate d-amphetamine with an additional amount of d-tartaric acid. We filter the precipitate, get the base of d-amphetamine, adding alkali to pH = 11"
UWe9o12jkied91dThat is on g pattons procedure, is that a mistake
oscar412yeah probably unless i;m not missing anything
UWe9o12jkied91dYe it doesnt make sense , wait and see what the video is like he is making
oscar412I mean that excess of d-tartaric acid precipitate d-amphetamine as well. It is sort of a/b extraction. I think you can skip this step and acidify ether solution after first d-tartaric acid addition.
G.PattonOk. But how can you precipitate d amphetamine with d tartaric acid, When you seperated
l amphetamine d tartate with this same tartraic acid in the step before
G.PattonThere is alot of confusion around this topic. Hopefully your video sheds some light on it .
oscar412I did it in equimolar ratio. For d-amph d-tartrane excess is used.
G.PattonSo L+ tartaric acid can precipitate both isomers

Ok, but even if it were like you said, which I don;t think it is, it would still be convenient, as long as ONE of them precipitates you have the ability to separate no matter which way
