Some do, some don't. Some take the risk of carrying it in their luggage, and hope the x ray scanners at the airport don't trigger any alarms.Not sure what you are saying. Do the people that go there CTB then?
Please enlighten me on how you plan to do that.YES, YES YOU CAN.

I'll await your AI generated slop instructions that will get you blown up.i will respond with the instructions soon just you wait and see

After 4.3 you'll only need to extract the pentobarbital sodium from solution. No need to acidify to get the free acid pentobarbital.Making Pentobarbital
Objective: Synthesis of 5-Ethyl-5-(1-methylbutyl)barbituric acid (Pentobarbital) via the "malonic ester" route.
Required materials and equipment:
Key Chemical Reagents:
1. Diethyl malonate (primary starting material)
2. Sodium metal or sodium ethoxide (base)
3. Absolute ethanol
4. 1-Bromopentane
5. Bromoethane
6. Urea
7. Hydrochloric acid
8 Solvents for extraction & purification: Diethyl ether, water, ethanol for recrystallization.
Equipment:
1. Three-neck round-bottom flasks with stir bars
2. Reflux condensers, addition funnels (pressure-equalizing)
3. Heating mantles with precise temperature control
4. Nitrogen/argon gas supply and inlet adapters for inert atmosphere
5. Separatory funnels, rotary evaporator
6. Büchner funnel and vacuum filtration setup
7. Melting point apparatus
8. (Optional, highly recommended) Access to analytical instruments: TLC plates, NMR, IR spectrometer, HPLC
Procedure:
Step 1: Formation of Sodium Diethyl Malonate Enolate
1. In a flame-dried three-neck flask under inert atmosphere, add absolute ethanol.
2. Carefully add clean sodium metal in small pieces until reaction stops, forming sodium ethoxide. Alternatively, use pre made sodium ethoxide.
3. Cool the mixture to 0-5°C (ice bath). Slowly add diethyl malonate while stirring vigorously.
Step 2: First Alkylation
1. Maintain the temperature below 10°C. Slowly add 1-bromopentane via addition funnel over 30-60 minutes.
2. After addition, slowly warm to room temperature, then heat under reflux (approx. 80°C) for 6-12 hours. Monitor reaction progress by TLC.
3. Cool, carefully quench with dilute acid, extract with ether, wash organic layer (water, brine), dry, and concentrate to obtain diethyl malonate.
Step 3: Second Alkylation
1. Repeat Step 1 with the product from Step 2 to generate its sodium enolate.
2. Alkylate with bromoethane using the same controlled procedure (slow addition, low temperature, then reflux).
3.Work up as before to obtain diethyl 5-ethyl-5-(1-methylbutyl)malonate.
Step 4: Cyclization to Form Barbiturate Ring
1. Dissolve the dialkylated malonate ester in absolute ethanol.
2. Add a molar amount of urea and a very small amount of sodium ethoxide.
3. Heat under vigorous reflux for 8-15 hours. The reaction produces pentobarbital sodium salt in solution.
4. Cool, carefully acidify with concentrated HCl to precipitate the free acid (pentobarbital).
Step 5: Purification & Analysis
1. Collect the crude solid via vacuum filtration. Wash thoroughly with cold water, then cold ether.
2. Recrystallize multiple times from a suitable solvent system (ethanol/water, toluene) until constant melting point is achieved. Pure pentobarbital melts at 162-164°C.

Does it say you're 19 on your profile?![]()
"AI slop"
you're insufferable
If the ai is correct and you need an inert atmosphere you may as well use the nitrogen for yourselfMaking Pentobarbital

If the ai is correct and you need an inert atmosphere you may as well use the nitrogen for yourself
Welp, for best yield inert atmosphere is recommended to keep anhydrous conditions, it helps avoid unwanted side products and danger. For example, sodium metal reacts violently with water or oxygen, so if you plan to make ethoxide yourself, protecting it from these is pretty importantThanks for pointing that out. It's a completely garbage AI copy paste that will lead to nothing but brown goo at the bottom of a flask, and possibly an explosion or two.
Sodium Metal doesn't react violently with oxygen, stop spreading misinformation. There are other ways to keep anhydrous conditions other than filling the entire room with argon/nitrogen, unless you want to kill yourselfWelp, for best yield inert atmosphere is recommended to keep anhydrous conditions, it helps avoid unwanted side products and danger.

Brother, I have sodium metal in my cupboard... And you don't need to fill the entire room with nitrogen for inert atmosphere, you could use a glove box or glove bag. I don't get why you're being so defensive instead of contributing.Sodium Metal doesn't react violently with oxygen, stop spreading misinformation.

You would know that if you had an inkling of an idea of what you were talking about. Sadly, you're as ignorant as OP and don't realize his entire post is random AI generated garbage.
I'm done explaining things to people on this post, go blow yourselves up, or asphyxiate yourselves.. You've been warned.
Again, sodium metal doesn't react violently with oxygen, it turns a dull gray due to oxidation. It comes in mineral oil in order to prevent this. A thin oxidized layer when briefly exposed to air is completely normal, and will not prevent you from making sodium ethoxide.Brother, I have sodium metal in my cupboard...
