I'm not a chemist. I did study a very little amount of chemistry in high school. I still find these videos fascinating. I do some metal casting, electroplating, anodizing, woodworking. All sorts of stuff. It's amazing how much chemistry knowledge you can use in other areas though. I suppose you could say everything all comes back to chemistry eventually. I doubt that I will ever make pyridine but I still find these videos interesting to watch.
It is common to use graphit as a joint seal. Next time try scratching a pencil on a seal for a simple detachment. The whole seal shoud be covered with graphit though and the process might take some time.
You can also use concentrated sulfuric acid as a joint seal. The only downside is that if you dont clean the joint well, it'll comtaminate your product when you go to pour it out.
Mabye in the next video you can make the lab joint greaser for your glass but you must work with what you got and well you still make the chemical you wanted so it works
We use pyridine at the lab I work at. It's hard to describe the smell of hot pyridine. It goes straight to my stomach. One of the other techs says it smells like pickles. I think they have problems. 😂
Nice one! :) Next time you probably grease only the upper half of the joint. Otherwise it can contaminate your product, which effects the yield (thats even more important, if you want to crystalize sometthing out) Stay on it! 🙂
I have to ask: do you have access to a ball mill? They're great for thoroughly mixing powders together as well as grinding down any clumps. Just beware of balancing the weight and how fast you go, because high speeds may result in reactions and/or phase changes.
Oh, you're describing a centrifugal mill. Yes those things can explode if not used correctly. The drum tumbler style will work for most applications, just much much slower.
i'm not used to this many, relatively consistently uploaded chemistry videos, coming from watching channels like nile red and Explosions&Fire. It's simply not how chemistry channels are supposed to run...
Are you going to make the ruthenium bypyridine complex? I wasn’t sure you could make that from simple pyridine, but I was kinda hoping it was possible as I was going to try anyway.
Pyridine doesn't smell like fish for me at all. At low concentration it does have sort of a rotten odor, but otherwise it has a pretty unique smell, not that horrible as some describe, which I cannot compare to anything else I smelled.
@Amateur Chemistry Is it OK for you to extract phosphorus from urine as ammonium magnesium phosphate also known as the mineral struvite? I can give a procedure on how to do that if you would like.
I don't think it smells like fish at all. It smells super weird and does a weird kinda menthol-ly thing in the nose but it doesn't smell fishy to me. I have two hypotheses. a) It doesn't actually smell like fish to anyone but some people do sense that it is an amine and their brains categorise it as something adjacent to a fish smell. b) There are genetic differences which means it does actually smell like fish to some people and not to others.
In theory yes but it would take so many steps it's not practical. Also if you have to ask you probably don't know enough about chemistry to attempt complex dangerous synthesis
That chain grease killed me. ROFL.
Well…I have small chem knowledge but your experiments are great! Keep up youngster ;)

Silicone based joint grease is a far better option in most cases.
@@DrSpooglemonfluorinated vacuum grease works great for just about anything but you mayyyy need to sell a kidney to afford it sadly
Don´t pour it, suck it out with a pipette.
@Amateur Chemistry An even better alternative to seal glass joints is Teflon pipe threading tape.
Try making pyridine perchlorate, it's one of my favorite energetics.

I use vaseline for joint grease. It can dissolve in organic solvents, but it does the job. Only a little is needed.
12:45 Interesting, can you replace "cancer powder" to copper manganite? It seems to be obtained by decomposition of tetraamminecopper permanganate

4:57 What about using a big powder funnel? 😉

Amazingjob well done how are you
One more thing what are other commonly found nonpolar solvents that is or can be made in your home from stuff from you home
Nice
I think if you just want the piperidine, extracting a bunch of black pepper and hydrolyzing it might be a better route.
But he's not after piperine he's making pyridine 🙂
Sorry autocorrect I meant piperdine
@@daltonsoutherland8836 watch the end of the video, 13:30
Just use sulfuric acid, Teflon tape, or nothing. The pyridine will leak into the joints and seal them.
why not usigin direct processe to produting pyridine (amonia + acetaldehyde) hight temperature

I rember. The pyridine to bipyridine is with raney nickel which means that it might be possible for my dumbass to make it.

Minty fish
Smells like old Polaroid fixer for black and white pictures
I see you're inspired by nile red?

this grinder cost 3$ in china
Any drugs or precursors i can synthesis with this?

@@duncanfox7871 ahh yes i see thank you, good thing i wasnt planning on doing that lol
@@duncanfox7871electrolytic oxidation to piperidine then go nuts. There are tons of drugs based on piperidine .
All hail Ex&F

Whitch smells worse, pyridine or triethylamine
Triethylamine is worse. Pyridine smells like minty fish.

First reply?
Hmmm, cancer fish

I like your videos, but your clumsiness is really off putting.
