I am a beginner to the chemistry field and could someone tell me the difference between Ephedrine and Psudoephedrine? Can a person extract the E needed out of ephedrine as well as he/she can from psudoephedrine? What ingrediants need I look for that I do not want?? Someone, Please? Also, here is a dumb one, what is H2O2?

E differs from P by configuration on the carbon bearing the OH-group. Since OH group is probably what you want to remove, P is as good as E.
H2O2 is hydrogen peroxide. I suggest that you do not proceed to the experimentation level until you get some chemistry intro.

Hey Hypo, I know my questions sound dumb but I already had a dream and it was a beautiful one! The yeild could use a little improving but the dream was sweet! I just ain't to hip on all the chemcal terms! WHich would be very helpful if I were! So one can extract good e from ephedrine just as well as psudoephidrine? I was told awhile back that the ephedrine pills were not what I wanted! It was the psudo only!
Anyone help me understand Y this would be true?

The only difference that's important to me between the two, is psuedo's readily available where I live. That, and I don't care for the high the Ephedrine reduced meth gives me. Leans more towards the adrenaline and not enough euphoria.
Chemically, they're mirror images of each other. Kinda like a newbee and a gnat.

That sounds like pretty reputable talk the real question would of course be though will in fact due to the difference in the chirality of the epicentrical OH group will this in fact cause slightly different reactions such that possibly during workup maybe pseudo goes through transition upon the c2 spot and that ephedrine would go through trabsition in the c5 spot irregardless of these activities how many might agree that this in fact is a cyclization event in the benzene ring???
I have some reliable pictures of pseudo and the structure problem is the citation is not so specific in the dfination of the diagrams it appears pseudo forms a bit of a different ester, that the ster is in fact not a benzene ring strugture I dont know enough about different esters to really explain presently but these esters concerned might possibly be esters from that umm stuff a while back umm something explosive it is um found in asprin apparently can be got from asprin, used to make colored crystals to check for MDMA apparently is a process for eluting chemical physical charesterics um posed within the last month I belive, I think polymerization is a real posibility with and strange products whith these methods including many possible amphetamine like substances not all of course should be defined as meth.

Hoping you can deciper this shorthand
They both have the formula

they differ in stereochemistry
eph (-) 1R,2S
eph (+) 1S,2R
psu (-) 1R,2R
psu (+) 1S,2S
Not sure which is called d- or l- . It would be a wild guess to say (+) is d im just not sure.
Hopefully some wiser bee can clue us in on which is d or l and which one would be best (for your cold, of course)

" Can a person extract the E needed out of

First off, one cant extract E from ephedrine because E is ephedrine. What you want is the ephedrine or psuedoephedrine that is in common cold pills.
the alkilne ephedrine is the precurser that you use to produce(dreams).
It dosent really matter which you use because they will both work...psuedo is also my fave. because it produces nicer dreams for me...
becareful some pills have crap in them called a binder that turns into a plastic or rubber shit when you try to extract them...

they took off ephedrine off the market because it raises blood pressure... pseudo lowers it... pseudo is therefore more desirable as a nasal decongestion. What would pills contain that the Ephedra plant wouldn't have to make the resulting meth less potent or what does the plant contain? I BELIEVE the pseudo in pills has the synthetic form that converts to inactive meth making the meth made from pills "cut". what a good way to piss meth cooks off. But either way the plant shit is better... never tried reducing pure ephedrine from pills though.. hard to find... it's usually in the energy pills rather than in the nasal decongestions. Any suggestions to what I can do with the nor-ephedrine that I pulled outta the plantS?

Snotbrain that is what i think he is talking about.First of all it must be the good pseudo used in this racimazation.The good pseudo is in the sudafed red hots for sure.The cheaper brands seem to be bullshit or fake.Second 25-30% HCL is used.Third you only have to heat not boil it's about the same way you do when you form a ester for the electro but for alot longer of time.Fourth it needs to be in a closed bottle or something to keep steam out and to keep the HCl from evaporating away.A reflux also is suppose to work fine as long as you keep it to a simmer and not a boil.At about 20 hours you will get around a 30 70 mix at 30 hours you will get like a 50 50 mix.It's real simple but takes alot of time.

It all depends on what kind of reduction you do some reductions retain others change.Lets take a look at the lithium in ammonia reduction this method retains.So it does not matter if pseudo or ephedrine is used it will give the same product which is d-meth.The same goes for the ester formula and most hydrogenation methods.Now for the red/p and iodine method this one changes but does so in a good way racimazation occures during reflux the boiling acid changes it to a mix of ld meth.So now on to the reductions that change and racimazation doesn't occure their are a few and their not hard to figure out these you will have to do what?Blanka as i told dwarfer i had to get rid of all my photo copies and books the references or out their.Fester if you should happen to read this would you look it up and post it hear for these bees thanks.

damn.. I hate when I lose my connection during a post... I especially hate when part of the post dissappears or when posts appear 3 times.. anyways... eph and pseudo have two chiral centers. they are both at the first 2 carbon sites of the propane cchain. so what the hell does that mean? it means when you make meth, and one of these chiral centers is removed, you will have one of two possiblilities for the meth (-) or (+) meth... so pseudo and eph can yeild both the good meth and useless meth depending on which "kind" of pseudo or ephedrine you use (+ or -) Ok? you still there.. so when I say I don't think there is gonna be a significant difference, i actually mean that if you try to start with OTC shit that contains eph (plants and some pills) or pseudo (pills) there is gonna be a small difference in what you get at the end because what you are starting with to get the meth is not pure... now which do people prefer?? I think the shit from plants is better. And if we are talking about starting with pure products turning into pure meth, it depends on which pseudo and which eph you are talking about (+ or -). If you compare -(-) ephedrine and +(-) pseudo, there is no difference in the meth you get, they will both be as good... pure (+) meth. I forgot who posted that since the chiral center is removed you will get the same shit no matter what.. or something to that effect... this is totally incorrect as there as 2 not one chiral centers, on of which is removed when the molecule is reduced to meth.

In addition to this, the physical properties for all substances (melting points, boiling points, density, refractive index, specific rotation, solubilities, crystal shapes, elemental analysis, and even the mp for 3-7 different salts/derivatives of each isomer is presented (where applicable).
The only error in the article is the assumption that the pseudo-compounds were 1-Phenyl-1-Amino-2-Propanols [Formula II, p 157] (as they knew that the ordinary ephedrines were 1-Phenyl-2-Amino-1-Propanols [Formula I, p 157] ). 75 years ago the concept of stereochemistry was not as developed as it is today, and they had no other analytical tools than to observe melting points and crystal shapes, therefore they could not imagine that ephedrine/pseudoephedrine were diastereomers, and thus all four isomers (d-eph, l-eph, d-pseudo, l-psdeudo) had the exactly same structural formula, just with different 3D-orientation (stereochemistry).

An enantioselective synthesis of (1S,2S)-pseudoephedrine
G. Vidyasagar Reddy, G. Venkat Rao, V. Sreevani and D. S. Iyengar
Tetrahedron Letters 41(6), 953-954 (2000) (../rhodium /pseudo
Abstract
Synthesis of (1S,2S)-pseudoephedrine is described via reduction of an alanine-derived oxazolidinone followed by treating with phenyl magnesium bromide and chemoselective N-methylation in an efficient and practical manner.
In recent years there has been considerable interest in the synthesis of optically pure amino alcohols because of their wide occurrence in several biologically active molecules and also their application as chiral building blocks, auxiliaries and ligands in asymmetric synthesis1-2. Among this class, ephedrine and pseudoephedrine have found wide application for a variety of purposes in organic synthesis. Pseudoephedrine, especially, has been used extensively in asymmetric alkylations of corresponding carboxamides3-4. Recently, we have reported chemoselective reduction of N-protected oxazolidinones to the corresponding lactol derivatives and their application in the synthesis of vicinal amino alcohols5. In this paper, we wish to report a new approach for the synthesis of (1S,2S)-pseudoephedrine by using the synthetic potential of our methodology. The key steps involved in the present synthesis are: (i) reduction of the N-Cbz oxazolidinone derived from alanine (2 to 3); (ii) Grignard addition to the lactol to give the amino alcohol (3 to 4); and (iii) chemoselective N-methylation (4 to 8) as shown in Scheme 1.
The oxazolidinone (2)6, readily obtained from N-Cbz-L-alanine (1) by reacting with paraformaldehyde in the presence of catalytic PTSA, was treated with 1 equiv. of sodium borohydride to give the lactol 3 in excellent yield (95%) as a colourless syrup [α]D -2° (c 1, MeOH). Treatment of lactol (3) with phenyl magnesium bromide afforded an inseparable diastereomeric mixture (4 and 5) in 92% combined yield, ratio 95:5 from 1H NMR. The newly created stereocentre in the major isomer 4 was initially assumed to be S by analogy with our earlier related work5, and was confirmed by conversion into the known title compound. To circumvent the separation problem, the diastereomeric mixture was reacted with paraformaldehyde in the presence of cat. PTSA to furnish oxazolines 6 and 7 in a combined yield of 96%. Oxazoline 6 was easily separated from 7 by using column chromatography in 94% yield (based on crude 6 and 7) as a colourless syrup, [α]D -21.5° (c 1, MeOH). Treatment of oxazoline 6 with NaCNBH3/TMSCl smoothly afforded the N-methyl amino alcohol 8 in 93% yield. Acidic hydrolysis of 8 afforded (1S,2S)-pseudoephedrine hydrochloride as white crystalline solid in 92% yield. M.p. 184–186°C, [α]D +59.8° (c 2, H2O) lit7 m.p. 185–188, [α]D +61° (c 1, H2O), thereby confirming the structure assignment and configurations.
In summary, we have demonstrated an efficient new synthesis of pseudoephedrine in excellent yield. This synthesis will be amenable to the syntheses of analogous compounds with ease. Further work is in progress and will be reported in due course.
