The Electro Equation | |||||||
Would the equation to establish theoretical running time (rxn duration) bee the same, when oxidizing phenylalanine to d-amphetamine (with electricity) ala "kolbe"? Refuse/Resist |

These equatations are theoretical for a perfect world and ideal conditions. As we dont have a perfect world with ideal conditions they are only useful for to tell the MINIMUM amount of electricity needed in such a reaction. Overreduction is nonsense and a divided cell was used always. Think about this. - References tell that the sulfuric acid ester is the best reducible one. - A lately surfaced japanese patent tells that reduction in sulfuric acid as electrolyte and using lead electrodes works for chloroephedrine. I propose it will work better with the sulfuric acid ester. - Forming the sulfuric acid ester in good yields is the actual problem. Question: Is there a way to form the sulfuric acid ester of (pseudo)ephedrine electrolytically or by another way than the one which is described on Rhodiums page which suffers from bad yields (~10g ester from 20g ephedrine IIRC)? so near, so far...... |

Re: Driving the current in Phenylalanine to Amph.. | |||||||
I would like to follow up Scottydog inquiry on Phenylalanine. It's well known that the ester of Phenylalanine can be achived with a reflux in methanol with some HCl. Hence this conversion doesn't suffer from low yields, it would be interesting to see if the reduction of the ester to the hydrocarbon is possible in this case. From the onset it would probably take more current to remove it being an ester of a primary alcohol.......java It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees...Emiliano Zapata |

well, maybe??? | |||||||
ASS-suming that my presumption in Post 535732 (dwarfer: "A REAL LIVE Failure! YeS!", Stimulants) that the microwave heating of a lewis acid ZnCl2/HCl greatly raised it's chlorinating effects.. (a speculative matter to be sure..) then perhaps the same situation may occur with H2SO4 in a microwave?? Who (k)nose? Easy trial, yeah? And Orgy is the "King of the Microwaves": get busy..

Maybe, but not my business anymore. | |||||||
Maybe, but not my business anymore. What I assume is this: - ZnCl2/HCl forms a complex zinc-acid which chlorinates the alcohol (says the "Gattermann"). The right ratios and microwaving will push the reaction into the wanted direction. - Adding more Zn after the chlorination and nuking it will reduce the chloroephedrine, how complete this reduction occurs is unknown to me. But (pseudo)ephedrine reduction is somehow boring, the P/I and the Birch, two almost quantitative reactions are available, what do you want more? so near, so far...... |

Near the end of this thread there is information as to the electro method of reduction of benzylic type alcohols ,(psudo)ephedrine, that may be of interest to readers of this thread..........java Post 243470 (epistemologicide: "Re: Hydrogenation Question", Chemistry Discourse) there is also some info here.....
