      RocketSpecialist; Haha, I know right?
      After he finished grinding it up, I was mentally pleading: "Please, please extract the acetaminophen from the fillers. PLEASE! No, no don't just dump it all in there, you don't know what random chemicals they mixed in with... aaaand now it all went red."
      I guess he knew exactly what was in there though, because it seemed to be easily purified out!

      Sides reactions happen all the time in synthesis, it's only by subsequent purification steps that purity is improved - usually at the expense of yield. However, he really should have extracted the acetaminophen out of the pills/fillers before carrying out the reaction.

      I think that it was due to the carbonyl. Sometimes in strongly alkaline conditions carbonyls with alpha hydrogens give some sort of polymerization reaction, and when this happens the polymer is always that kind of red crap.
      I don't think that it was due to the additive of the pills, most of the times the fillers and the binders are pretty inert stuff, like silica or some sort of magnesium salt.
      I could be wrong though.

      @@mortlet5180 Im sure he looked into it. You can find everything in any pill you want very easily, usually on the box itself. But this is usually for OTC stuff, prescription stuff is usually in the orange or blue bottles with the printed info labels. Depends how big the scrip is though, my buddies dad gets a 3 month bottle of oxycodone for his scoliosis and the bottle looks more like an advil bottle than a prescription bottle, and it has all the ingredients and binders listed. You can also find the info on their website for all the pills a certain brand makes. This goes for basically any and ALL brands of pills in circulation.
