Making and Testing The ANTI-SPICY Molecule (Capsazepine)

In this video I am making and self-testing the molecule Capsazepine (albeit crude), a molecule that blocks access to the receptor activated by the spicy-molecule capsaicin, thus removing its ability to cause you the spicy feeling. There is no known literature on its use on humans, it is used to study the TRPV1 ion-channel (spicy/heat receptor) but only in biology or biochemistry.
For the azepine: onlinelibrary....
For the isothiocyanate I used a general procedure from: scihub.se/http...
For the final coupling: sci-hub.se/htt...
