I understand that the Heliotropin sold in Mexico probably only contains about 25% Piperonal but is it very difficult to extract and worth it to do. Any suggestions? Sassy is so hard to find anymore I am getting frustrated. I can do a fractional dist. easily either with a vig. or packed column but am just curious if anybody has any suggestions. Thanks in advance.

If you can find out the other ingrediants, you'll have a better chance at an answer. I'd even do some looking, but am far from knowledgable. I am very curious though.

I dont know the mexican situation...but if something is sold as heliotropin or piperonal then it has to be just that. It should be fairly easy to determine....as its a hard opaque white solid at room temperature that smells of vanilla/cherry. Any adulterants would lower the boiling point and you would have an oil.
Peace, love and empathy

They sell it in 1 liter bottles as a liquid. These people speak no English so it is hard to ask what the exact content is. I guess I need to see if they provide MSDS sheets withtheh bottles.
