    It's simultaneously terrifying and reassuring that chemical and electrical engineering use the 'eyeball' method. Fairly certain mechanicals use it, too. lol

    Nice find. Albeit expensive as you mentioned. If you fancy a bit of danger you could do what I did on my channel and heat NH4NO3 and urea to form guanidine nitrate in good yield which could easily be converted to the carbonate and finally the chloride. Downside is you need to heat an explosive substance for several hours.

    The sludge is Denatonium HCl salt. You had Denatonium Benzoate and converted to Den.HCl and benzoic acid. Checking the vapour-pressure nomograph I suspect you have the benzoic acid mixed in, unless guanidinum benzoate precipitated as well.

    With any research you have to start somewhere. Eyeballing is really an educated guess. Intuition based on years of experience isn't a bad starting point. Then through experimentation, you refine the recipe.

  • @charleszhou5021
    @charleszhou5021 4 года назад +1

    In commercial practice, the relatively strong organic chemical base, guanidine is usually present in the form of guanidine hydroxide. However, guanidine hydroxide is not generally stable for long periods in aqueous solutions. Consequently, it must be prepared fresh just before using.
    Guanidine hydroxide is generally prepared by reacting an inorganic chemical base such as an alkaline earth hydroxide with an aqueous solution of a salt of guanidine, where the anion of this guanidine salt forms a precipitate with the cation of the alkaline earth hydroxide. In commercially available products of this type, the guanidine hydroxide is generally prepared using guanidine carbonate and calcium hydroxide.

  • @Alsacien
    @Alsacien 6 лет назад +7

    After watching Primitive Technology's latest video, I started wondering if someone like you would be able to produce a photosensitive liquid from scratch (without buying anything) to reinvent photography. Let's just assume that you have the necessary laboratory glass and readily available metals like silver and copper in a mine and river. Would you be able to produce silver nitrate or even better, halides?

    • @luuma6912
      @luuma6912 6 лет назад

      It's a lot of mining, but it's possible. Just get some saltpeter and sulfuric acid, mix it and shield your eyes, and then chuck the silver on it

    • @ThePharphis
      @ThePharphis 6 лет назад +1

      He may not need to for an intermediate step, though if he has problems he may want to revisit this synthesis and purity.

  • @giansieger8687
    @giansieger8687 2 года назад +1

    is the reaction between urea and ammonia not possible/ viable. Or maybe with hydroxylamine (not sure how you‘d get that) and then removing the hydroxy group

  • @antbot1150
    @antbot1150 6 лет назад +21

    Considering only the successful reactions, what's is the overall cost of your synthesis? let's say normalized by mass, for example per gram. can you tell it to us at the end of this serie?

    • @NurdRage
      @NurdRage  6 лет назад +40

      only the successful ones? probably several hundred dollars so far. But if you factor in the cost of failure and ancillary costs like lab space rental, i'm at $22000 so far.

    • @lexer_
      @lexer_ 6 лет назад +3

      You can probably shave off costs on almost every step so an estimate of the first route is kinda pointless.

    • @antbot1150
      @antbot1150 6 лет назад +2

      Thank you for the reply. keep up the great work!

    • @NurdRage
      @NurdRage  6 лет назад +24

      each step is only about $50-$100,
      But it's the fact that I personally *failed* so much before i got them right that some steps cost +$1000 with the number of repeats and do-overs i had to do. But now that i've shown how to do them. Anyone copying me shouldn't have spend that much.

      Maybe, urea phosphate is already half-way? I heated 40g urea with 25g of ancestral pentoxide and it frothed, even too nicely. I wasn't however able to get it to fuse after this. I presume the very white chalky substance is urea phosphate. It doesn't visibly react with water and I'm wondering what to do next.
