And how would you know? If it were pseudo HCl it wouldn't be in the nonpolar anymore. It is more likely that you have freebase pseduo crystals. You have seen what Scottydog describes evaporating the nonpolar for the freebase crystals. Note that Scottydog does not consider these clean yet, either. He redissolves in fresh nonpolar and titrates that for his final crystals. I would suggest you do the same. You may have just shucked the OII gakk and (under some of the suggested scenarios at least) this may have opened the door to the new gakk that is giving people fits gassing. Now the question is why these did not gas out. The only thing I know that came to mind is a question of how long you let the calcium chloride and HCl sit before using it. You do need to give some time for the calcium chloride to absorb the water from the acid,otherwise you are gassing with air and fumes from the HCl. Granted, this is just a matter of waiting a short time and I doubt this was your problem. <hr>mostly harmless </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr class="text_bg"> <td align="left" valign="bottom"><img src="../forum/images/left_bottom.gif" border="0" height="12" width="9"></td> <td valign="middle" align="center" colspan="7"> </td> <td align="right" valign="bottom"><img src="../forum/images/right_bottom.gif" border="0" height="12" width="9"></td> </tr> <tr class="page_bg"> <td colspan="9"> </td> </tr> <td align="left" valign="top" class="text_bg"> <img src="../forum/images/left_top.gif" border="0" height="12" width="9"></td> <td colspan="7"><a name="Post492190"></a></a> </td> <td align="right" valign="top"><img src="../forum/images/right_top.gif" border="0" height="12" width="9"></td> </tr> <tr class="text_bg"> <td rowspan="2"> </td> <td rowspan="2"> </td> <td valign="top" align="center" rowspan="2"> Scottydog (Hive Addict) 03-02-04 05:00 No 492190 </td> <td rowspan="2"> </td> <td rowspan="2" width="1" class="vert_ruler"> <img src="../forum/images/hr.gif" border="0" width="1" height="1"> </td> <td rowspan="2"> </td> <td class="text_bg" align="left" valign="top"> Great recovery 8ball! </td> <td class="text_bg" align="right" valign="top"> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr class="text_bg"> <td colspan="2" valign="top" align="left"> Good return 8ball. It is good to see more bees starting to evap the NP to recover their freebase. Who knows, by the time the NEXT generation of gakks begins to surface in all available pillstocks, bees may not have any other choice. I noticed that you chose to use acetone to rinse your freebase of the orange oil. ***Swim has found that after a couple acetone rinses it will start to pull pseudo freebase.*** Swim has also found that if too much of the NP is evaporated away, the oil gets too concentrated in the freebase and becomes more difficult to get rid of. After evapping the NP, Swim finds it best to decant as much of the oil from the freebase as possible. When one gets to the point to where all that is coming off is a few drops per minute, Swim opts to add fresh Xylene. One can use a stirring rod and mix the mass of freebase with the fresh Xylene and proceed to evap it down again. When most of the Xylene is gone, the mass of freebase will once again reappear at the bottom and what little Xylene remains will have absorbed the remainder of the residual gakk. After allowing the contents to cool to room temperature, the rest of the orange can bee removed. It is a little more work this way, but at least one will know for sure that any loss of precursor is negligible. By doing it this way, one can run the freebase in a rxn "AS IS" or further titrate with fresh NP and water to get the HCL salt. Sorry for the repetition, but hopefully the rest of the swarm will catch on. Swim has been dealing with this curse for a few months now. It must have hit his area first. If you are a US bee and have yet to experience this menace, I'm sure you eventually will. <img src="../forum/images/icons_lightgrey/crazy.gif" alt="crazy" title="Crazy" heigth="15" width="15"> <hr>Supreme White Powder </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr class="text_bg"> <td align="left" valign="bottom"><img src="../forum/images/left_bottom.gif" border="0" height="12" width="9"></td> <td valign="middle" align="center" colspan="7"> </td> <td align="right" valign="bottom"><img src="../forum/images/right_bottom.gif" border="0" height="12" width="9"></td> </tr> <tr class="page_bg"> <td colspan="9"> </td> </tr> <td align="left" valign="top" class="text_bg"> <img src="../forum/images/left_top.gif" border="0" height="12" width="9"></td> <td colspan="7"><a name="Post492238"></a></a> </td> <td align="right" valign="top"><img src="../forum/images/right_top.gif" border="0" height="12" width="9"></td> </tr> <tr class="text_bg"> <td rowspan="2"> </td> <td rowspan="2"> </td> <td valign="top" align="center" rowspan="2"> 8ball (Hive Bee) 03-02-04 07:06 No 492238 </td> <td rowspan="2"> </td> <td rowspan="2" width="1" class="vert_ruler"> <img src="../forum/images/hr.gif" border="0" width="1" height="1"> </td> <td rowspan="2"> </td> <td class="text_bg" align="left" valign="top"> but is it clean... </td> <td class="text_bg" align="right" valign="top"> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr class="text_bg"> <td colspan="2" valign="top" align="left"> I am guessing it is clean going on past experience and the fact that to the touch it is so soft or fragile its hard to explain but with the dirtier gear it seems to bind together because it is seemingly stickier if i pick a little of this up between two fingers and squash it basically disintergrates or melts its nothing like that sticky crap that sticks to your dish after evaping.This is that white it has a blus sheen across it when you look at it under light at different angles.

It comes out with plain water washes after washing the freebase pseudo laden nonpolar solvent with NaOH solution. It did not separate into layers or break down over several days of sitting open on the bench. It did not dry out, either. It was floating beneath the nonpolar solvent, was nonpolar in nature, and formed a distinctively separate mass to itself. Yields were approriate for the extraction and I have no reason to think this gray layer held any significant amount of pseudo. I use the term emulsion loosely, and more for descriptive reasons than anything else. I would not want to evaporate this with the nonpolar solvent. I would want it out before I evaporated, gassed, or titrated. I think Scottydog would see a lot less of his oily gakk when he evaporates his solvent down if he would do this first. Maybe not. If it did reduce the amount of the oily gakk he has on evaporating the solvent, we could assume we are removing the same thing by this process, and that might be helpful information to have. <hr>mostly harmless </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr class="text_bg"> <td align="left" valign="bottom"><img src="../forum/images/left_bottom.gif" border="0" height="12" width="9"></td> <td valign="middle" align="center" colspan="7"> </td> <td align="right" valign="bottom"><img src="../forum/images/right_bottom.gif" border="0" height="12" width="9"></td> </tr> <tr class="page_bg"> <td colspan="9"> </td> </tr> <img src="../forum/images/left_top.gif" border="0" height="12" width="9"></td> <td colspan="7"><a name="Post537026"></a></a> </td> <td align="right" valign="top"><img src="../forum/images/right_top.gif" border="0" height="12" width="9"></td> </tr> <tr class="text_bg"> <td rowspan="2"> </td> <td rowspan="2"> </td> <td valign="top" align="center" rowspan="2"> callen (Hive Bee) 10-21-04 15:04 No 537026 </td> <td rowspan="2"> </td> <td rowspan="2" width="1" class="vert_ruler"> <img src="../forum/images/hr.gif" border="0" width="1" height="1"> </td> <td rowspan="2"> </td> <td class="text_bg" align="left" valign="top"> Gassing...A.L.F.'s way! </td> <td class="text_bg" align="right" valign="top"> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr class="text_bg"> <td colspan="2" valign="top" align="left"> Hello Brother Bee...A.L.F sez,"Try aluminum foil and Muriatic Acid...the foil reacts wirh the acid to form Hydrogen gass...this pressurizes the Rxn vessel and since Muriat fumes off HCL gass...the Hydrogen pumps the HCL gass through the tube into your Xtract solution...out pop all those wonderful Xtals."<img src="../forum/images/icons_lightgrey/smile.gif" alt="smile" title="Smile" heigth="15" width="15"> <hr>callen + A.L.F. </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr class="text_bg"> <td align="left" valign="bottom"><img src="../forum/images/left_bottom.gif" border="0" height="12" width="9"></td> <td valign="middle" align="center" colspan="7"> </td> <td align="right" valign="bottom"><img src="../forum/images/right_bottom.gif" border="0" height="12" width="9"></td> </tr> <tr class="page_bg"> <td colspan="9"> </td> </tr> <td align="left" valign="top" class="text_bg"> <img src="../forum/images/left_top.gif" border="0" height="12" width="9"></td> <td colspan="7"><a name="Post537112"></a></a> </td> <td align="right" valign="top"><img src="../forum/images/right_top.gif" border="0" height="12" width="9"></td> </tr> <tr class="text_bg"> <td rowspan="2"> </td> <td rowspan="2"> </td> <td valign="top" align="center" rowspan="2"> indole_amine (Hive Bee) 10-22-04 02:41 No 537112 </td> <td rowspan="2"> </td> <td rowspan="2" width="1" class="vert_ruler"> <img src="../forum/images/hr.gif" border="0" width="1" height="1"> </td> <td rowspan="2"> </td> <td class="text_bg" align="left" valign="top"> H2SO4/NaCl !!!

It is more likely that you have freebase pseduo crystals. You have seen what Scottydog describes evaporating the nonpolar for the freebase crystals. Note that Scottydog does not consider these clean yet, either. He redissolves in fresh nonpolar and titrates that for his final crystals. I would suggest you do the same. You may have just shucked the OII gakk and (under some of the suggested scenarios at least) this may have opened the door to the new gakk that is giving people fits gassing. <br><br>Now the question is why these did not gas out. The only thing I know that came to mind is a question of how long you let the calcium chloride and HCl sit before using it. You do need to give some time for the calcium chloride to absorb the water from the acid,otherwise you are gassing with air and fumes from the HCl.

When one gets to the point to where all that is coming off is a few drops per minute, Swim opts to add fresh Xylene. One can use a stirring rod and mix the mass of freebase with the fresh Xylene and proceed to evap it down again.<br><br>When most of the Xylene is gone, the mass of freebase will once again reappear at the bottom and what little Xylene remains will have absorbed the remainder of the residual gakk. After allowing the contents to cool to room temperature, the rest of the orange can bee removed.<br><br>It is a little more work this way, but at least one will know for sure that any loss of precursor is negligible.<br><br>By doing it this way, one can run the freebase in a rxn "AS IS" or further titrate with fresh NP and water to get the HCL salt.<br><br>Sorry for the repetition, but hopefully the rest of the swarm will catch on. Swim has been dealing with this curse for a few months now. It must have hit his area first. If you are a US bee and have yet to experience this menace, I'm sure you eventually will. <img src="../forum/images/icons_lightgrey/crazy.gif" alt="crazy" title="Crazy" heigth="15" width="15"> <br>

You should get a grey emulsion at the interface between the nonpolar and the wash water.

It comes out with plain water washes after washing the freebase pseudo laden nonpolar solvent with NaOH solution. It did not separate into layers or break down over several days of sitting open on the bench. It did not dry out, either. It was floating beneath the nonpolar solvent, was nonpolar in nature, and formed a distinctively separate mass to itself.
