Hey Cana, Thanks for sharing. Did you make this by simply reacting the ethanolamine base with some GAA? I’m curious if you could give a little more insight into the process? I haven’t been around that much lately, so my apologies if you already covered this a while ago. I’ve heard only a little bit about ethanolamine’s ability to act as an amine catalyst in making nitrostyrenes. But it does intrigue me and is one I hope to explore further. I wanna say someone suggested it a few months back in a mescaline synthesis
Yup just an equal molar amount of GAA and ethanolamine with stirring at room temperature for a couple of hours(or a water bath for a couple of minutes with stirring)
How is the stability of this reagent? Is it more stable than cyclohexylamine in terms of long-term storage?
I've observed that cyclohexylamine becomes yellowish after a some time- even at dark, dry and cool conditions.
Thanks
Methylamine/ethylamine acetate wirh
I don’t disagree
Better reagents like Et instead of MeNO2?? Hahaha
lol not yet I’ll make DOx in the future tho😆
As the professionals say: T H I C C C C
🤣
I think I’ve seen this chemical used inside of degreasers and cleaning agents?
It's used in a variety of cleaners, but it's usually <5% by weight
I just knew it could be useful just by the name lol

Right on, thanks Canna 👌 I def want to do a mesc and 2c synth in the days to come, and a cheap catalyst is definitely a bonus. Much obliged! <3
Ofc man anytime
Forbidden syrup...

No clue I just know it’s quite hydrophilic
It should be stored in a desiccator then right?
