Any thoughts as to wether or not Fumaric saturated ethanol would work as well?

i tried fase with spice, and it seemed to work very nicely, although it was suggested that spice may be somewhat soluble in ethanol. do you have dry ethanol? if so, you could try dissolving some of your purified mesc fumarate in it. of course weigh before and after, and evap the ethanol wash to see whats left.

So.....

First pull yielded 1068 mg (un cleaned) recovered from 200g starting material (dried).

100g that just arrived and 100g that has been in the fridge for a few months.

69ron style Drytek'd each 100g separately but decided to combine the limo to dry and salt.

The 2nd pulls were combined , dried and salted too. But, have not been filtered and weighed.

Hopefully, today excess Fumaric acid will be removed from the whole lot.

The product so far smells a little limoneney and is bitter as all get down. It looks so much more awesome than even the cleanest acetate.

A section of fresh torch was despined, filleted, dried and powdered yielding 40g of green flesh powder. The limo is drying now and will be salted after breakfast. There is excitement because this is the first 1 from the garden that has gone drytek.

The extraction talked about above will be the last one that's not from the garden or live cuttings.

also, when dropping fasipa into limo, the cloud formed like a cylinder ring in the jar about 1/2 inch thick, and slowly sank to the bottom, but was far to whispy and did not crystalize like spice fumarates. had to pour the limo thru a coffee filter to catch the goods.



Same thing happened.. But when the cloud got 2 inches thick... A flurry of clumped tiny crystals rained down collecting on the bottom. Decanting skills suck... Coffee filter was still needed to collect.

fumaric seems very difficult, some cats have tried a few times and have very limited success

maybe FASW + ipa/acetone wash to remove fumaric contamination would be easier than FASI ?

what do you mean little success and difficult, Ipoma

Phlux acetone bombing tek worked pretty good for the gerbil in my pants. Super easy too.

fasi is straight forward, using a coffee filter is easy, just throw it in the food dehydrator, and it flakes right off, white.Cool

this method is solid, and easy.

i want to try a limetek to fasi next, just to save on the boiling

In case its not clear to those who review this thread

Salting with FASI works awesome, mesc fumarate is great stuff.

Not sure it'd be worth the trouble of switching from hcl, but if you have a ton of fumaric acid (and you probably do) there is no reason to go out buying hcl)

Where would one buy 99% IPA without ordering online? A crafts store maybe..? Not sure, I've only seen 91% in supermarkets. I read somewhere that ISO-HEET was good enough for extraction, but not perhaps washing steps?

I found this MSDS: http://www.imperialsupplies.com/msds0055120.shtml



Also, if one had no access to 99%IPA,
would 2x anhydrous MEK & 2X anhydrous acetone wash suffice to remove most of the excess fumaric acid?

91 is fine

You are going to dry even 99 with anhydrous magnesium sulfate (cooked epsom salts) so starting with 91 just means more water to start with.

no problem Smile

For those who still have a VONS nearby their house, they can go there to purchase 99% IPA.

Im really thinking that 99% may not need to be further dried. The gerbil realized that he should probably be washing his dlimo with FASW to get all the hold-out goodies anyway. So that rogue ~1% isn't going to cause too much trouble in the long term.

The gerbil is usually pretty good about adding anhydrous mag sulphate to the container whenever he gets new solvent, so decanting sometimes months later...is pretty easy.

Recent attempt to filter the desiccant proved to be difficult du to the powder being so fine. I think a more coarse grind would be less efficient but way easier to filter in the case that you don't have time to wait for things to settle and decant.

mesc fumarate is an isolation of mescaline and perhaps mescaline like alkaloids yet when using fasipa in limonene there seems to be a lack of sedative mescaline related alkaloids precipitated. my query is how to best extract these "other" compounds.

considering the "other alkaloids" saturate the limonene which is mixed with dry iso, adding an aqueous salt might not work so well, or it may, im not sure.

if the alcohol prohibits the separation of aqueous phase because of its polarity it might be pertinent to vaporize the alcohol through heat. considering the boiling point of orange oil is most likely higher (source) the ipa will easily boil off before the dlimo. hypothetically the solution when exposed to increasing heat will boil twice, once for the alcohol and if the heat continues to increase eventually a second boil will begin, which would be the vaporization of the dlimo.
so after the first boil has ceased (with continued consistent heat), one could assume the dlimo is absent of ipa (as it is higher than the boiling point of ipa yet lower than the bp of dlimo). hypothetically returning the dlimo to its previous characteristics (non polarity/pka/viscosity/etc)

now that the dlimo would be saturated only with "other alkaloids" and they could be salted through liquid liquid extraction utilizing vinegar as the aqueous phase.

if every works as suggested the extraction would yield mesc fumarates and other acetates separatively, both of which could be cleaned up later with various techniques

dlimo's bp is 349 degrees f

ipa bp is 181 degrees f


double boiling the iso/dlimo mixture in a water vessel would safely accomplish vaporizing the iso without chancing an increase in heat more than 30 degrees f. success

I don't feel like this post I'm writing is worth it's own thread. I also like when old useful threads from years ago pop back into the present Pleased

I did essentially the same thing as outlined in the initial post. I pulled with minimal toluene instead of limonene. I had 50ml of greenish yellow toluene in the end, to which I added 50ml of FASI through a small funnel stuffed with cotton. Immediately the alkaloids crashed out and settled into some lovely fumarates. Settling took about 2 hours, no further clouding or settling was observed.

I had to catch the alks in a coffee filter, then add drops of distilled water once the filter dried to rinse them through. This removed a lot of insoluble impurities. I din't feel like leaving a single milligram in the paper. Too precious. Next I dried the mesc water in a dish with a fan.

I like this because of the fact that I don't have to use strong acids and it involves IPA which means that some of the non-mesc alks are left behind (I assume this as IPA is used to remove other alks). I also don't have to spend extra time separating HCL solutions from solvents. Not bad.

EDIT*

Question... does MEK dissolve any amount of fumaric acid? This thread mentions using a mix of MEK, Acetone and IPA to clean mesc HCL : https://www.dmt-nexus.me...aspx?g=posts&t=80047 . One problem with cleaning it this way is that it's only as effective as the exposed surface area of the product. Maximum solvent to alkaloid contact occurs when they are in solution, as each molecule is exposed. So could one not precipitate fumarates and clean them of all other non-mesc alks in one easy step with a mix of fumaric acid saturated MEK/acetone/IPA for the salting ?

Interesting idea. I don't have any experience with fumaric acid solubility in MEK, but my two cents...

I have never tried FASI or FASA with mescaline, though it is my preferred way for dmt. But with dmt I do STB with mini-A/B (dmt HCl) and subsequent FASA. For mescaline the solubility of alkaloids in the water is higher, so I have tried to avoid the extra water/non-polar cycle (and loss) with mini-A/B.

If you precipitate mescaline directly from toluene without previous mini-A/B (like in my case of dmt), you will have to cope with more impurities while precipitating, which would be left behind if you did mini-A/B, or at least mini-A Pleased when back-salting..

As I have written in the mentioned post describing purification of mescaline HCl, the most important seem to be acetone and ipa. Mek is just an addition, but it doesn't seem to be essential.

Be aware that the solubility of various alkaloids can be different for their HCl and fumarate forms.
Acceptance of the fact that our reality is not real doesn't in fact mean it is not real. It just leads to better understanding what real means.
