You could use weedkiller a a source of isopropylamine, concentrating the purchased material, adding a base, distilling off the amine (BP 33 C) and
capturing it in hydrochloric acid. If you want to do so, consider the MW of IPAM (~59) and glyphosate (~169) meaning very roughly 1/4 of the
"isopropyl salt" is the amine, and how much of the salt is in the purchased material.

What about dripping the amine directly into anhydrous alcohol?
I remember some good synths at the-hive of modified birch reactions used with ethyl and methylamine but I cant find them. | |
