Today, it snowed where I live. My VW was whitened by the weather. Try listening to some Die Antwoord in the car sometime, you may like it. I am writing a book and you'll be in it.
Lol I never understand why he makes everything in such massive qty... then I start trying to tweak the reaction and realize I should have done it in bulk from the beginning. Any ideas as to why this reaction works with acetophenone and didn't really work when I tried with cyclohexanone? I had 3L on hand, but I just had to order 120g Acetophenone to at least get SOME pyrrolidine to work with. I also want to do a bunch of different coupling reactions on my new channel... When I tried in the past maybe I didn't reflux long enough; maybe it needed to be slowly distilled for many hours longer than acetophenone does... who knows.... Could you offer any insight into why everyone uses this one ketone and not another? I could go to the trouble of making myself loads of propiophenone or p-methylpropiophenone, but that's not ideal
@@williamackerson_chemistpretty sure that the aromatic ring, in conjunction with the imine increases the stability of the final product through resonance, lowers G and favours the reaction.
Those were my exact thoughts when I first made another lachrymatory agent. That I should have a whiff at the product because I hadnt suffered any ill effects during the synthesis. But before I needed to clean some glassware. I learned that it worked perfectly when I flushed the pipette used to collect the product with water from the tap. There was still a droplet inside and the little time it spent in the sink was enough to feel as if a needle was being poked in the eye :)
I've messed with boiling capsaicin, acidic vapors, and a few "tear gases" of my own (benzoyl chloride, allyl alcohol, etc)...but unless something changes, I want NOTHING to do with that much CS, lol. Excellent work, loved the video!
Thank you mate! I hope that you may redo the resiniferatoxin extraction in a larger and more efficient way one day. Spicy compounds are just special ^^
@@THYZOID I certainly hope to, that first attempt was honestly kind of pitiful! I'm pretty s**t at extractions though, even with compounds that aren't light/heat/air sensitive like RTX, lol.
Ive found that nebulized capsaicin is an incredibly powerful uhhh dunno what is the term but it makes you cough and sneeze extremely strongly, just a few μg per cubic meter of air is enough to feel you are coughing and sneezing your lungs out. How I discovered that, I dissolved about 150mg of capsaicin on 20ml of ethanol and then sprayed that with a fine mist nasal spray bottle I purposefully used that due the fine mist it produces, the alcohol evaporates and the capsaicin particles are quite small, it looks like a faint bluish smoke if spritz on a beam of sun or a powerful flashlight. Just a couple of spritz were enough to make everyone in the house cough and sneeze like crazy, everyone got really mad at me, something very rare and a testament of how noxious it is considering everyone in the house are used to all shorts of smells, vapors, lights and noises. We opened all windows and aired the house. Playing with the concentration and droplet size (before the solvent evaporates) changes the effect between more cough or more sneezes.
You are hands down the funniest and more better-equipped chemist of all of them currently still active on RUclips, from title to tutu. I appreciate every video and your efforts and your humor. Perhaps we share German origins from the far past! Have a good new year and Happy Christmas, Harry Potter!
I did a contract where we had to disassemble a bunch of old riot control munitions that contained CS powder. We did as much of it as possible in negative pressure glove boxes, but it was inevitable that you would get a slight exposure every day. In small doses, it really smells like nothing, just all of the sudden your nose starts running, your eyes water slightly, and you get this kinda high cough. That said, I get seasonal nasal congestion, and very slight exposure opens my nose up like you wouldn't believe. FWIW, being this close to christmas the CS powder isn't all that interesting. Bust some back out in the summer, even at high room temperatures it sublimates surprisingly readily. Fun video, thanks for suffering for science.
@@THYZOID Was thinking the same thing. I have to say I love the cat ears aesthetic... hope to see more of your cubane eventually, but this video definitely rivals NileRed and Tom from Explosions&Fire! Great work. You, @Chemdelic, & @Chemiolis are the benchmark I hope to work up to by the time I figure out how to film and edit properly.
2:24 For the mechanism, the reactive species is the iminium not the enamine. You would form the iminium releasing water. The second proton comes from the carboxylic acid of the proline (it’s its own acid catalyst). For heat based decarboxylations, you need an electron sink which the iminium provides. The resulting Zwitterion is protonated with water/acid. The iminium is hydrolyzed to give pyrrolidine and acetophenone.
Pyrrolidine... I actually have some of that. Some of it leaked on the side of a beaker, and I wiped it up with a paper towel and put it aside. A few minutes later, I went to blow my nose, and accidentally grabbed the paper towel I used to wipe the pyrrolidine up with. I literally huffed the pyrrolidine, albeit unintentionally. I don't gag much when it comes to odors, but that was absolutely terrible. I imagine snorting lines of rotten fish guts would be pretty similar. lol. Thanks for uploading man! Love your content. Sorry I haven't been too involved in discord lately 😕
Considerably worse on your skin if you work up a sweat first. In the Army, they made us exercise beforehand to maximize this effect. Then, upon removing our gas masks, we were expected to sing. Hilarity ensued. Though, I didn't think it was very funny at the time. - While they used CS grenades in the field to terrorize us they were actually using a hotplate in the gas chamber and were pouring the grenade pellets directly onto it. Makes for a very dense cloud very rapidly.
I have to say, you're probably not helping with the German stereotypes. But I have to give props for your investment into the grind. 😅😂 Merry Christmas!!
Biggest mistake i ever made with cs was when i went through a dcon class and had to get gassed (again for like the 4th time) and i was in the last group to go in so they dumped the rest of the pellets on the hot plate (normally its 1-3 pellets per group but we had 26) and it promptly caught fire plus my masks filter didn't have the seal rings cause the marine corps is broke. Because of that my mask leaked a bit and my eyes were very itchy. Well i underestimated how much cs was on us when we were out cause it wasnt bad in there (with mask even leaking) and i subconsciously rubbed my itchy eye and a THICK coat of cs went in my eye with spread all about my face. 10 minutes of great pain and a realization that i had enough cs on my cammies to ruin everyone elses day
The teary-eyed effects and the skin burning in wet areas aren't too bad to handle, but inhaling it sucks. As much as breathing it through your nose hurts though, breathing through the mouth is the wrong move cause usually you end up doubled over coughing up a lung. It's an aerosolized powder so if you can tolerate breathing through your nose it'll take the edge off, and any particulate-catching mask - everything from a T shirt to an n95 to a respirator with P3/P100 filters - will stop it with varying degrees of effectiveness. Ideally though, you wanna make sure your gas mask filters are wrapped with a rag or something because 9 times outta 10 if CS is being used, so is OC spray and that'll mess up or soak through most filters. If you've got a 3M mask they mitigate this by having a plastic housing version of their P100 plus nuisance gas filters, the 7093HC carts, that has the intakes in a place it's impossible to spray capsaicin into which is very useful. Just, y'know, experience from 2020 in Louisville.
How convenient! I just ordered some Acetophenone yesterday, and I'm waiting for it to arrive Sat to begin processing the kilo of L-Proline I've been saving. I tried it with cyclohexanone, and in theory it should work the same, but perhaps the aromatic ring causes some extra strain on the alpha carbon? That's the only explanation I have as to why the cyclic aliphatic ketone didn't work for me, but I'm just an amateur... Anyway, I ordered a 120g sample of Acetophenone since I'm all self funded and can't splurge for now. I know it will work with that. Maybe I can tweak it to work with cyclohexanone and post a unique version of what you did...

There is very uncomformtable feelings of asphyxia. In concentration even several miligrams in cubic meter. As a CBRN specialist I know those stuffs very vell. And CS is the friendly one in comparison with others😊
Yeah, of the tear gasses CS definitely isn't the strongest, however it is probably the safest and that's why it is used by far the most. CR and CN although much more potent are also much more toxic.
I worked with that reaction, but i think it was easier using NH4Ac as catalyst , without solvent and a domestic microwave oven for a few minutes, to purify it ,I recrystallized from ethanol/water in acidic conditions, with good yields and purity
Oh, man! I have a great deal of respect for you. I worked with thiol compounds a lot in undergrad, and people called me crazy when I said I liked it. I guess lacrimatory agents do the same for you.
@THYZOID thiols for me had a nostalgic feel to them. More particularly, aromatic thiols (such as thiophenol) in low concentrations smelled of canned chicken noodle soup, and in high concentrations like burning rubber. The smell was unique, and now I can smell it everywhere! Hot days outside, and I'll get a whiff of it. Alkyl thiols are stinky but in a nostalgic kind of way. It reminds me of the seashore where I grew up, playing in mud puddles that gave off hydrogen sulfide.

Loved the cameo of original me :) Very interesting as I havent tried this one myself but had it in the back of my head. Oddly enough, this video about tear gas made me laugh a lot !
It's interesting that the molecule has 2 alkyne groups on it. I very rarely ever see alkynes outside of acetylene. It seems like they're a rather rare functional group. So, it's odd to see 2 in one molecule. At least for me. Wikipedia has a huge list of alkynes, so it seems they're not AS rare as I thought.

Dude. Your Videos are wild. Can you look into making the (legal but gray area) peptide BPC 157? It is the repair molecule from the stomach wall as the human body would digest itself otherwise. athletes found out it repairs everything else as well if you inject it.
When I was in the army we hqd "Gas chamber day" where we had to go in, remove our masks, and do jumping jacks for 5 min or so while they pumped CS into the room. For about three months after, you could still smell the CS in the set of BDUs you wore through the gas chamber.
Hello! There is an easier way to get this substance and other similar substances from aromatic aldehydes and malonodinitril. The reaction should be carried out in the water ethanol (70%). The catalyst is a glycine amino acid. The output is almost quantitative. I synthesized many substances of a similar structure many years ago. Some of them are much more active than the CS. I recommend you try to synthesize the older brother of the CS, the CR, Dibenzoxazepine. Good luck!
If anyone needs a taste of the effects, if you have a gas stove, just grab you're shaker of black pepper and it's easy. Light your burner and just shake the pepper shaker over the burner and let the falling bits light up as they fall. Lean in a bit and get a good whiff of the resulting smoke. This probably works on a hot electric burner as well. Not exactly the same as a lung full of CS, but at least you can feel something and maybe scratch the itch to feel.
How the hell did i only just see the connection between the pyrollidine smell, depressed teenager, and the smell of a-pvp (the drug). Damn pyrollidine is icky

can you kindly share the brand and model name of the glassware and equipment used in this videos

Hi. Was going through your list and i realize that you didnt remake the second alkaloid video as promise
Hello! There is an easier way to get this substance and other similar substances from aromatic aldehydes and malonodinitril. The reaction should be carried out in the water ethanol (70%). The catalyst is a glycine amino acid. The output is almost quantitative. I synthesized many substances of a similar structure many years ago. Some of them are much more active than the CS. I recommend you try to synthesize the older brother of the CS, the CR, Dibenzoxazepine. Good luck!
havent seen as good of a video in ages .....
hats off

If anyone needs a taste of the effects, if you have a gas stove, just grab you're shaker of black pepper and it's easy. Light your burner and just shake the pepper shaker over the burner and let the falling bits light up as they fall. Lean in a bit and get a good whiff of the resulting smoke. This probably works on a hot electric burner as well. Not exactly the same as a lung full of CS, but at least you can feel something and maybe scratch the itch to feel.
This is manic and brilliant
Americans was trying do this reaction “on site” in tunnels in Vietnam during Vietnam war with succes. I have read a paper about it.
CN is quite more effective IIRC, though it might be a bit more fatal... synthesis when? D:
I recommend getting a lapel mic! it will make the spoken audio much better
