So you've possibly roughly 1gram spice and some fumaric acid and sodium carbonate. Simply add Naphtha dropwise untill everything that will dossolve has, and the impurity's will not. Filter... evaporate till it clouds upon agitation (read blown upon). Put a lid on it and freeze it out.
Bobs your uncle.
Oh waity.. nvm. Ive never used acetone for anything involving spice. But im aware people have used it for changa, so yes it should dissolve freebase DMT. If you added Saturated sodium carbonate solution to Spice fumarate solution you should have changed the PH and freebased it all. Using PH papers is not difficult and is pretty basic (boom boom), doing so allows you to know where your PH is and takes away the mystery of not knowing where your at.
The freebasing technique of adding warm water to DMT fumarates drop wise until dissolved, filtering then adding drop wise a saturated sodium carbonate solution to precipitate the freebase (best to let sit in the fridge for 24/48hr) works well. Everything is done drop wise so that all solutions are concentrated and thus precipitates precipitate as dictate-d?
I see no reason for your solution to yield fumarate salts upon evaporation without adding fumaric acid to the mix which wouldn't happen anyway as its not particularly soluble and your evaporating to dryness.
PH is dictated by ions... add or take away H+ or OH- ions to change the PH. I do wonder if evaporating water affects this, Im to naive to say for sure.It could be that you have not gone basic enough with the Sodium carbonate solution. Alas i have seen this technique fail for mysterious reasons during a Confusa fumarate freebasing.
I suspect something to do with solution concentrations.
The solution to the issue was to simply extract from the basic mixture with Naphtha. Remember chemical principles do not change. This is essentially an A/B but your starting with a solution of DMT fumarate, rather then acetate, making it basic using Na2C03 instead of NaOH, and pulling just the same.. albeit minus the plant matter.
Anyway seeing as you washed this residue from the evaporated freebasing, the white powder you have left is highly likely to be fumaric acid & sodium carbonate while the DMT freebase is likely to be in your acetone.
If you suspect some residual DMT fumarate in the waste from the wash... throw it into your next extraction.
Tho its likely to be a tiny or non existent amount.
I would evaporate it to find out for sure. Its unlikely that any DMT fumarate was picked up in the acetone as it is insoluble (see below)
I hope this helps.
Quote:5ml of methanol, ethanol, isopropanol or acetone were saturated with SWIM's dmt fumarate, then the solvent siphoned off and evaporated. The residue was weighted. The results are:
Acetone : practically 0mg/ml (there was a very thin layer of residue left, impossible to scrape
IPA : ~1mg/ml. The residue was still too little to be weighted properly
Ethanol : ~5mg/ml
methanol: ~10mg/ml
This is the OG freebasing technique.
Quote:1 - Mix DMT fumarate with 1 part calcium hydroxide (calcium carbonate should work as well).
2 - Add enough water to make it wet and mix. (Freebase the DMT again)
3 - Spread it out and let it dry completely.
4- Dissolve it in acetone and filter out the solids. (At this point only alkaloids like DMT should dissolve)
5- Evaporate the acetone to get nearly pure freebase DMT.
