Can you synthesize melanin🎉
Got an adrenaline rush from watching with great synth. :)
I was wondering how to select between 1alpha and 2alpha methyl 4,5a- dihydrotestosterone? And would it be possible to add a 17B- undec-10 enoate ? I just don't know how selectivity on positional placement
Love how so many Chemistry YT channels embraced the chaotic nature of the subject.
I think the right word is "consumed". They've been consumed by the chaos. Lol
Im glad there is now always some chemistry content being made, whether it is from you, NileRed, CodysLab, E&F or others I can never get bored
Thanks to NileRed creating mainstream media we have this kind of channels
nurd rage started it off
It was actually much better a few years ago, many active chemistry channels either got banned or left when TH-cam started cracking down on certain chemistry subjects
At 4:25 M*thylamine ha-ha Wowza :D
@@semesabrown8203Going after drug adjacent chemistry videos is like banning the use of 2x4 brick in lego sets.
I've an adrenal tumour and produce waaaaaaaay too much, if you need adrenaline, all you have to do is ask dude!
What does that feel like?
Do you age fast because of it?

@@jamesbrown99991 adrenaline isn't adrenochrome
@@taiiiz3969 if you get an EpiPen and inject yourself you can find out lmfao they're just adrenaline, or sudaphed is almost the same chemical and reacts very similarly in your body so that would probably be easier to get an idea from, it probably won't be exactly the same but it's like Adderall and meth, people who have done both usually say they're basically identical feeling
You’ve bullied the Australian thesis guy too much already..
Too
It's ok. Have you ever seen a video of gazelles giving birth? That baby has to hit the ground running or it gets eaten by the first predator that sees it. That's similar to how Australians are raised. A hostile environment is what they thrive in.
@@xWonderxBreadx 🤣
I‘m not sure it is bullying unless there‘s more beef going on in subrabbits etc.
😂😂😂
I love that you actually go through the theory and not just the lab procedure. a lot of chemists these days follow the procedures without understanding the mechanistic steps. you obviously do and you share your knowledge
Love the reaction theory instead of just mindless mixing chemicals.
It's crazy how human bodies can make such complicated chemicals without breaking a sweat or accidentally killing ourselves
The power of enzymes
@@giuseppedelcuratolo1589Exactly. Once our department head (a pure chemist) said: "come on if that enzyme can do that reduction in 99% ee, we can do it in the lab too". I was just standing there like: "No, just no"
Enzymes can achieve precision that is unmatched. It's crazy how evolution turned amino acids into peptides and then proteins and enzymes which perform their task in crazy precision. Take Candida mediated terminal oxidation of alkane chains to carboxylic acids. Even when labile functional groups are present. We need multistep reactions and harsh conditions to do the same thing and need to protect all labile groups.
Evolution.
i start a degree apprenticeship as a laboratory scientist next week and your channel was a huge inspo in keeping me into chemistry through the slog of uk education aha, hope youre doing well!
Keep us updated on what impossible hunts the chemistry people send their apprentices as pranks.
@@Kenionatusshes gonna make YELLOW chemistry
Is this the same as a laboratory technician?

I had never looked into adrenochrome at all before. I never knew that the synthesis was so reasonable and straightforward. This really shows how stupid all the adrenochrome conspiracy theories really are.
Which is easier for a conspiracy to do without getting caught: traumatize hundreds of children and purify adrenochrome from their body fluids, or suborn one single chemist to buy it for them off Sigma? I mean, I'd think natural products extraction is enough of a pain in the ass without hundreds of traumatized children screaming and attracting police attention.
Of all the things to take from a hunter s Thompson book..
What's also funny is even if it were a super complicated compound only available biologically, the first thing we would do is splice the genes for it into yeast and brew it by the hubdreds of gallons in giant vats like beer.
Many of these conspiracy theorists are mentally ill genuinely. I say this because my father is borderline psychotic and he expresses it with his world view. When he went on a tangent about adrenochrome, I let him say his piece. I didn’t interrupt, I listened, I tried to understand. Then I asked him calmly if I can provide another piece of data.
That data was a link to a complete synth of adrenochrome and a link to a site to BUY adrenochrome from a chemical company for the measly price of like $40/g.
This changed nothing in his mind. No shift in perspective. No reconsideration of the “facts” as he sees them. (Bear in mind my dad has a successful career and supports his family with an honest career. He is “normal” to society)
That was when I realized his world view is unreasonable. Not unreasonable in the sense that he’s difficult to reason with.
Unreasonable in the sense that he is “not comfortable to reason” which is the dictionary definition for unreasonable.
Rather than reevaluate his personal view and consider concrete data, he just…doubled down.
It’s one thing to believe child’s blood has special powers. It’s another to have your theory disproven and instead of find a new explanation or new theory, you just double down on the same one despite evidence??
That’s a deficit in critical thinking and reasoning capacity. Years later, I understand my father is mentally Ill and growing old. I wouldn’t be surprised if he is unable to care for himself 10 years from now.
It’s sad, but also scary that so many “normal” people especially of old age are clearly mentally compromised and their higher thinking is at a deficit or compromised. 10 years from now I doubt my father will be “normal” like he is today.
Thanks for your comment. Hope this made sense
@@rileymerson8781 That made a lot of sense-- well, as much sense as a discussion of conspiracy theory ever can. I'm sorry you're going through that with your father. It must be distressing to watch someone you are close to lose grasp on logical thought processes.
I've started to think about different types of falsifiable theory recently. Normally, we criticize a scientific theory as "unfalsifiable" if it doesn't make any testable predictions.
But I've noticed that many conspiracy theories are unfalsifiable in another manner: they make testable predictions, but their adherents refuse to consider falsification as a possibility. I don't understand the psychology of it. Perhaps it's the rush of knowing a secret truth, the pleasure of being part of a tight-knit community (of conspiracy theorists); combined with a disinterest in self-criticism and the dysphoric feeling of being proven wrong.
There are some really really obviously wrong conspiracy theories out there, and some people who believe them no matter the evidence.
But again--I don't really understand it.
You're now probably flagged for making something more illegal with that catechol and methylamine lol. Keep up the good work!
Adrenoreceptor activators come in many tasty shapes!
I wonder how the Heisenberg guy who comments on every video feels about censoring that one compound that's essential for making that other compound that also makes you faster.
Man I love your videos. These chemistry channels got me brushing up on basic math and general chemistry. I think ima go back to college for organic chem.
It’s all so interesting and all ties to or can be applied to things I’ve spent years reading about for fun. Thank you chemistry TH-camrs!
Go for it my guy.
@@breakinglegsandbreakinghea3167 thanks man! Math never made sense to me but this time I can see the rhyme reason & beauty.
I’ll update this comment when I take the placement test in a couple months and let y’all know how it went
@@toomanycactus3138huge W, commenting so youtube (hopefully) notifies me
I love home many different colours this synthesis goes through.
I once worked on photoswitchable diazo PROTACS and I kid you not, I went through a complete rainbow during the multistep synthesis. From white to blue, to violet, yellow fluorescent then green and in the end after diazo coupling a pure red. This was really nice.
How does activated charcoal always know which molecules are impurities and which are the desired product? Literally black magic.
Actually, it does not know and absorbs things in a non-specific way. But as long as your sample is relatively pure, you'll get a higher purity sample at a cost of small yield loss
But why ?
I do understand why crystallization does improve purity thanks to the equilibrium of every species : X(solution) - X(s) and that considering the composition of the solution doesn’t change the solubility of the species that much.
With carbon, you could write a similar equilibrium but I would have say that having a concentrated solution of A would favor A(adsorbed) over B(adsorbed) (with B an impurity, in smaller concentration), because the carbon would saturate itself with A ? So as a result you would loss as much of A than B and conserve the ratio ? Idk… I can’t think it right I guess but if you have an explanation it would be welcome !
@@Tom-to7dy I have found some claims that activated charcoal preferably absorbs conjugated molecules with high MW (which are usually colored), which makes sense considering that activated charcoal mostly used for decolorization. So not 100% "non-specific" I guess...
@@Tom-to7dy It is just a gamble, sometimes the only thing charcoal does is steal some of your yield. It can absolutely happen that it binds much more strongly to your desired product, there is no easy way to predict it. You just have to try it, and note down the results so that the next person doing the same reaction is better informed.
In the video's Friedel-Crafts reaction, the byproducts are likely oligomeric conjugated molecules resulting from the oxidation of catechol, so activated carbon appears to have worked in the favor
Now you need to give yourself an anaphylactic shock and try it
Next up: Making adrenochrome because I want to be able to see hell.
Adrenochrome is just oxidised adrenaline
/tinfoil hat just get traffic children for the elites you will get some
It's kinda scary/funny how easily convinced an entire group of conspiracy theorists were that it *only* comes from sacrificing children and that politicians use it to stay young. I know perfectly intelligent people that would normally be smart enough to look into it and see how easily it could be synthesized by a decent lab that would totally avoid using their brain just to believe their echo chamber. Sad state of politics right now :X
@@friedrichvonsnatch3501 Yes. Exactly. It is in the body in low amounts but usually people have many pathways so that it does not stay stable in the bloodstream. It's a hypothesis of
Abram Hoffer showing that it has psychotomimetic properties like LSD or mescaline. It's a theory but he has many studies showing that psychotic symptoms can be reversed by high dose niacin (B3) and vitamin C as an over-methylation and oxidation happens in these people from chronic stress and malnourishment.
He did ingest some and gave him paranoid depression for a week.
The science community ignores it. Call me crazy but this guy has cured dozens upon dozens of psychiatric patients and got "debunked" by the usual fact-checkers.
@friedrichvonsnatch3501 is it true that it gets you high if you take it?
No joke, I take noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor, because unless I am in fight/flight I am couch/potato.
I actually wouldn't mind like a slow-release adrenaline xD
you're trying to say you do meth??
adderall
SNRI?
venlafaxine ftw
yup, atomoxetine
Very nice video man! Guess I need to join the neurotransmitter club now...
@@peepeepoopoo5932 I was working on my own dopamine synth long before Pyrotechnical scooped me, and I ain't stopping progress until I HAVE PURE FREEBASE DOPAMINE
To think that our bodies do this every single time we get jumpscared in a movie...
Lol I think we synthesise it from amino acids instead
@@vicesimum_phi8123 Levodopa
Takes many of the organic synthesis techniques we learned in class and shows a real life application beyond what we could do in lab. Great video!
I find it amusing that the final intermediate is adrenochrome. No terrified kids required. 👍
I make adrenalin for free every time I have a panic attack
it feels nice watching this kind of videos knowing what those cryptic symbols meant after taking a chemistry class
M*thylamine 💀
You know YT's anti-profanity has gone too far when you have to censor ordinary molecules.
Not exactly anti-profanity I'd guess but yeah.
It’s to prevent any chance of the video being flagged 💀
Crazy right, fucklyamine is a common and useful chemical. So sad.
I'm definitely sure there are some fancy metal catalysts out there (from the Noyori group specifically) that can enantioselectively reduce adrenalone to the desired enantiomer. Splice in a Mitsunobu reaction/hydrolysis to flip the isomer if necessary.
Also, shouldn't the yield in the previous steps be better if the product was purified by chromatography instead of recrystallization?
I swear, I’ve watched so much of Chemiolis at this point that I cheer when we get green, but immediately get sad because I know yellow is next 😭
"The product isnt supposed to be a barbie add so I will oppenheimer it" got me cackling
Wonder what happens when you drink it do you get a adrenaline rush or what?
The visualizations are very nice, my chemistry studies only start in a month yet i could understand most ofehat was going on
Given that adrenaline is the same thing as epinephrine, I wonder how hard it would be to create black market epipens like this.
Nice job ! I suggest dissolve adrenaline in DCM and then carefully dropwise add conc. sulfuric acid until no more solid is formed, filter and then alcohol washing of the formed salt.
When something turns from red into orange, it's one step closer to yellow. I don't trust this - it's already half-evil!
Be careful 😂😂😂 you might get the crazies to think you’re involved in pizzagate
*implies he's going to inject the adrenaline*
"... But I'm not doing that."
4:28 The m*thyl group is the simplest organyl group, represented by the formula -CH3.
Why did u censor the word methyl?
@@kingmewto7148 To poke fun at the censorship. Methyl has the letters meth in it - the narcotic drug methamphetamine is also shortened to meth.
my man just calling out Tom and Nigel like this!
Love your videos dude keep up the fantastic work
Tom and Joey, according to the video
@@NebulonRangerNilered is called Nigel
Okay someone please explain the omniscient activated carbon. So many chemistry channels that have said the exact same line "add some activated carbon to get rid of some impurities". Never the same compound and I'm guessing never the same impurities. But still the carbon seem to know what to absorb. Is activated carbon the chemist equivalent to alternative medicine peoples colloidal silver? That it "knows" what you want to remove and removes it?
Can someone please explain how the activated carbon always removes unknown impurities but never the actual chemical you are striving to purify?
Activated carbon is good at binding with colored impurities. Can't tell you the exact mechanism as I don't know that level of chemistry, but yeah, it is quite promiscuous with its adsorption. Binds to a lot of stuff, especially stuff wit visible light color and ions, and if it doesn't bind to your product, it will pull a bunch of extra random stuff off.
Really, solvent washing is not much different from that. Chemical reactions are a random process, you just try to select for the one compound you need.
Were you to make the chemical that activated carbon would adsorb, you would simply not use activated carbon to purify it. Among those that you've seen on youtube using activated carbon, none were of that type because people generally know what they're doing.
P.S. Maybe you should do at least a cursory internet read before assuming that a widely industrially and chemically used purification method is snake oil.
Damn Nile red catching strays 😭💀💀
Bro wanted to make adrenochrome
What happens when a dutch guy gets acces to all chemicals lol
If you're in the US, you can just buy adrenaline and save yourself the effort. It's the active ingredient in Primatene Mist inhalers, which are sold OTC.
The m*thylamine censor had me dead. Love your videos man
Bruh created a speed boost potion
This is such an underrated channel, lol
LMFAO , all I could think about was Cartman's Vchip .
We want a video about coverting Epinephrine molecule into N - Methyl Amphetamine.
I find it interesting that compounds such as adrenaline, dopamine, l-DOPA, phenylalanine, tyrosine, etc are found naturally within the human system yet, under the law, can be considered as _analog_ drugs or precursors.
"they use chiral resolution but I'm not doing that BYE" 💀💀💀💀
4:27 damn you gotta censor the M word 😂
I subscribed when this channel had about 10 subscribers, thinkng it would grow to be huge. Foresight at its best
is this the method pharmaceutical companies use at a larger scale?
This guy is just flexing with being the best chemist on TH-cam
4:28 what's the bleep for? Don't tell me TH-cam doesn't like the word "meth"
make fentanyl next
Methylamine is an organic compound with a formula of CH3NH2. This colorless gas is a derivative of ammonia, but with one hydrogen atom being replaced by a methyl group. It is the simplest primary amine.
Just don't give this to frank castle, he might push in your eyeballs.
i can't understand how enantiomers have different chemical properties when the substituents are just placed in different planes..... chemistry is weird that is why I like it.
Walter fight or Walter flight
So methanol is fine but methylamine is not? Man, breaking bad did some stupid things to our collective knowledge
You can't make meth with methanol
Amazing how much steps can be skipped after you hear the banging on the door and a "FBI, OPEN UP"
This also gives you a yield bonus
Just out of curiosity, why did you censor methylamene?
Please, consider extracting and separating codeine, morphine and thebaine from supermarket poppy seeds. The poppy seeds we eat are indeed from opium poppies, and the white dust that is visible on them is the dried "milk" from the seed pods.
EDIT: Is it possible to synthesise adrenochrome from epinephrine via some kind of oxidation process? That'd be fuuuuuuun ...
I'm very surprised you're allowed to produce adrenaline.
"hn oh oh oh" yep, it's adrenaline all right
Chemiolis with the consistent uploads i love it 💪🏻
Phenethylamines are so intetesting. Adrenaline is Tyramine with 2 extra hydroxyl groups. All these things are near to amphetamine and the amino acids tryptophan and phenylalanine. Barium hydroxide is your friend if you have those amino acids. Phenethylamines have a wide spectrum of chemistry across plants and animals.
Forbidden raspberry juice 3:18
idk why it felt like forever to get to 1:19 where the chemistry starts but i'm glad i waited
I’m wondering if it would’ve been easier to just start from phenylephrine. It has everything except the 4-OH group. Idk how hard it would be to add that.
Most screenshots I’ve took in my life
Oh so we can do the adrenaline boost thing from kickass. Cool
Shots fired at e&f. How dare you. You monster!
If you’re tired, don’t make adrenaline make methamphetamine.
Dude the government is so watching you.
Bro, it's not the 90s anymore. The government just tells google what info it wants on everyone and they have it.
Showing Nilered as the lazy youtuber is gold 😂 I wish he would upload a lot more
Gombound sounds like Gung Bao.
So distillation separation/filtering is a preferred separatory technique technique, because heat sources are cheap...
But wouldn't solvent separation + freezing be another good one in some cases?
higher temps = increased reaction rates, but dissociation in a solution a reaction; so I'd think if you want to halt reactions + separate, if you can be selective enough in freeze temp, then that would be a way to go.
Just a thought.
0:28 Shade!
Edit 4:56 - (bleep)-ylamine is my Beck cover band
Make sure to store it under an inert gas as the chemical oxidizes redily.
Small scale synthesis
Is that word purposely censored to avoid being flagged or is it a joke? I hadn't thought of how careful chemistry channels need to be with this insane drug war
it is purposefully censored to avoid getting demonetized
yo im pretty sure my thyroid got this covered
Its that simple of a molecule? Cool
this guy just made the strongest smelling salts ever
İt is wonderful that you passed many many steps to make adrenaline, but our body makes it like usual work. Human body is amazing....
Great. Now I can learn how to inject myself with adrenaline, and probably get a cardio arrest.
Fantastic work though.
Would love to see a pure dopamine or histamine synthesis too!
2:13 if phenyl group acts as a nucleophile here (because double bonds?) and attacks C carbon, should form of this be Cl-C+=O and not tripple bond form with O+ ? how is in triple bond resonance C atom a electrophile and not O? wouldnt this resault in O binding to the phenyl ring directly
Always great high quality content!
Chemiolis probably had the same amount of adrenaline that he made when he was getting the chemicals for his videos. Still a great video though.
Some would say harder, better, faster, stronger.
100 bucks and I’ll sniff a line of it for science
Sorry. Rodents were specially bred for the purpose of sniffing lines of chemicals and to be cute and hilarious while doing it. That's tough to compete with.
I assume you track the reactions by TLC?
You could show it from time to time for the people that are either not familiar with typical laboratory work or are young and simply interested in how everything works.
You could also do a video on NMR interpretation or GC/HPLC-MS interpretation. It is not as entertaining as synthesis but some might be interested. I think Mestrenova has a free version which could allow viewers to follow your steps on a predicted NMR spectrum since MNova has that feature.
Youre videos are truly awesome…
Next video - resolution via chiral tartarate salt ;)
The chem diagram says it all. Hn- oh- oh- oh 😂
