Hydrolysis of 6-MAC


Does anybody have an idea how one would go about this? 6-Monoacetylcodeine is an acetate ester of codeine, and it seems like it would be facile to deacetylate it into codeine freebase through hydrolysis. Any ideas?

Why do you want to do this? (I don't want to give advice to criminals.)

Anyway, the conditions for acetate ester hydrolysis are common knowledge. Look them up yourself.




As below, so above.

Just a thrifty chemist, trying to make some profitable use of the acetyl codeine he very public spiritedly separated out of quickly labbed, dirty, semi processed batches of heroin before selling it on. Injecting codeine is bad, m'kay? Tends to erode your customer base even quicker than usual to pass that stuff along in the goods.


Quote:
While the acute toxicity of 6-monoacetylcodeine have not been studied in man, animal studies have shown that in animal models it's convulsant effects have been proved and when mixed with mono- or di- acetyl morphine, lowers the convulsant threshold of the mixture still further.[


Yep. Public spirited, thrifty, and trying to get educated. Benjamin Franklin would be proud.

Rapopart’s Rules for critical commentary:

1. Attempt to re-express your target’s position so clearly, vividly and fairly that your target says: “Thanks, I wish I’d thought of putting it that way.”
2. List any points of agreement (especially if they are not matters of general or widespread agreement).
3. Mention anything you have learned from your target.
4. Only then are you permitted to say so much as a word of rebuttal or criticism.

Anatol Rapoport was a Russian-born American mathematical psychologist (1911-2007).
