motek: OK OK, I was wrong for saying you weren't cool. You obviously know all the cool kids. My bad, your mad name dropping put me in my place. As far as the PO3 thing or whatever, I dont know what you're talking about but I assume you are criticizing my LSD method. I dont advocate POCl3 addition because its nasty stuff and hard to get for most. I advocate peptide coupling, the reagents are cheap and anyone can get them. But as far as POCl3 goes, it is very possible to make. I know this because I actually put in my time in the library and don't just get all my info second hand on forums. You can make POCl3 but it requires a custom made stainless steel pressure vessel with a distillation takeoff. No its not that method that is posted online utilizing high pressure Cl. It uses solid feedstock and an inorganic reaction. One pot. Heres a free tip: making pocl3 is very nasty, especially since pcl5 is formed also. Even microgram amounts inhaled can hurt like shit. To prevent this what you do is when you do the distillation part of it you do it in a chamber with an ultrasonic fogger adding humidity. What this does is hydrolize the nasty inorganic compounds to their corresponding acids the second they leak out into the humid chamber. This is the kind of stuff people pay me for, not the repetitive shit pulled from messages boards but the logistics of actually pulling it off. the details that a real chemist knows, not just some armchair e-celeb dick sucker.
