----------------Methamphetamine is prepared by the catalytic hydrogenation of ephedrinein acetic acid, containing a small amount of perchloric acid as anActivator. This process requires from 4 to 5 hours, although somesay 6 to 8 hours, for completion. Methamphetamine may also beprepared by the reaction between phenylacetone and methylamine,then the final reduction to methamphetamine. This process requires6 to 8 hours from completion.Materials: 95-100% ethanol, Sodium Borohydride, 250 ml round bottom glass flask, reflux condenser, rubber tubing, Sudafed nasal decongestant capsules,glass extraction funnel, 1 molar Sodium Hydroxide, Sodium Sulfate, anhydrous diethyl ether, Safety goggles, Safety shield (plexiglass. 1-2 "thick), Safety apron and gloves. It's also advisable to have a dry chemical fire extinguisher available at all times. Blue and red litmus paper, and about a litre of saturated salt solution (1 gram per 23 mls).At ALL stages, glassware should be kept very dry.Theory: You will perform a catalytic dehydrogenolysis on pseudoephedrine, converting it into methylamphetamine (speed, ice, or glass are common names).Structure of synthesis: This procedure is broken up into two parts; 1) the production and purification of pseudoephedrine free base.2) the production and purification of methylamphetamine free base.
