minus-square@assassin_aragorn@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish3•1 month ago…I think we did it on a hotplate. Maybe we were using toluene as a solvent or something. It’s been quite a while.
minus-squareLvxferrelinkfedilinkEnglish3•1 month agoYou said that you only did the first nitration, right? You were probably using slightly less concentrated ingredients then. Doing it on a hotplate with oleum and fuming nitric (required for all three nitrations) is madness.
