Making Methylamine 3 Ways
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 ก.ย. 2024
- In this video I demonstrate three ways of making the incredibly commonplace (but fairly tough to buy) chemical methylamine.
I used the methylamine produced here to make a photographic developer called Metol, which I'll demonstrate in a future video.
There are numerous other methods of making methylamine and its salts, as it is the simplest primary amine and a simple byproduct of a multitude of biological and organic decompositions, but I believe these three methods to be the most useful.
This video was done on the behalf of several Patreon requests, and I am sorry it took so long. Hopefully it was worth the wait. Enjoy!

Since this is my longest video to date, I made numerous mistakes in my Narration. Many I caught during editing, but I'm sure you all will catch many more in the coming days.
So far it's been noted that:
At 2:22 methylene imine is being reduced and formaldehyde is oxidized. Not water.
Note that this video involves the use of dangerous chemicals, and generates toxic gases. Nothing seen here should be reproduced except by professionals or under professional supervision. Synthesis of this chemical may violate local law or ordinance depending on your country of residence, so always check before proceeding with any chemical procedure.
Also note that I will not now or ever be using this chemical to further manufacture any chemical that is illegal in any country, so do not ask.

5:50 Safety advise: I learned (during my vocational training almost 45 years ago) never-ever to set "normal" Erlenmeyer-flasks or other glassware with straight walls under vacuum due to the danger of an implosion. Only glassware with thick walls or roundbottom flasks should used for work involving vacuum. Before starting to work with vacuum, roundbottom flasks should be examined thoroughly for the absense of cracks. Btw: excellent work!
Thank you so much! And thank you as well for the advice. I've never read about implosion under vacuum, but I have enough experience that I had a gut feeling it was a possibility. So far I've avoided it by never pulling anything near a full vacuum and compensating with higher heat. My biggest implosion concern is always the liebig condenser.. the inner wall looks very thin, but I do feel the geometry of it makes it less likely to undergo implosion.
What do you think? Is it mostly just a concern with erlenmeyer flasks?
@@integral_chemistry borosilicate is a relatively brittle glass, it just has low thermal expansion so its a lot safer to use in the thermally rambunctious setting of a laboratory. Under vacuum the glass would mostly be under compression, ergo depending on the vacuum level I dont see it as being much of an issue (again depending on the depth of the vacuum. There is a reason near perfect vacuum chambers where you cant suck molecules out anymore you have to hit them with something (ie, those super freaking cool oil vapor pumps, Ben on Applied Science has a video of a fully glass one in operation. its amazing) are made out of thick metals. The atmosphere does not have a sense of humor....).
That being said, Im not discounting the OPs experience in having glass implode under vacuum, just like with heat it can be hard to see the flaws that will make them fail. And I can absolutely see a regulator going screwy and pulling far too hard. Then all youd need is a cheap thin piece of glassware in the apparatus and its a afternoon of clean up, neutralizing, decontamination, and thinking up an excuse for the hospital burn ward (nosy bastards.....uh, or so ive been told). It sucks throwing away money like this, but take some time and test things to failure. If theyre only tested to some point, you have no idea how close that point is to the failure point. And besides, destruction makes for great (and informative) content ;)
Be safe, mate! I want to see more awesome videos!
Edgy synthesis presented educationally!👍
Btw the thermometer-stirring is brutal!
Yeah I've been good about not doing it for several months now so watching it back in editing physically hurt me. Not looking forward to how many times I'm gonna get called out on that 😅
But thank you! "Edgy synth presented educationally" is exactly what I was going for. I think it is a really cool process from a scientific perspective, and so I wanted to show it without risking any flak from TH-cam. I think it's delivery is so void of any drug glorification and dry enough that it should hold up.
As a side note I've been sitting on synthesis vids for TNT, RDX, and acetone peroxide for ages for the same reason I sat on this video for ages.
@@integral_chemistry Don't worry about the thermometer-stirring, we have all been there.
Those energetic material syntheses are as edgy if not more, it would be risky to be taken down somehow but that totally depends on the YT reviewer's decision (Which is rather inconsistent), I do think those rules are less strict than before as I can see some of those edgy videos resurfaced.
I would avoid the acteone peroxide. I never made it and still had the ATF on me about it.

I've always admired the historic chemists like Lavoisier and Davy and so many more. Like theirs, this chemistry explores new territory. You seem to already know far more about methylamine hydrochloride than does Wikipedia does about methylammonium chloride. Thank you for letting us observe your process so clearly.
Thank you so very much, it means a lot. I do try and be creative and informative in all my work, and I'm so happy it doesn't go unnoticed.
I just love the way you did the experiment Sir. The government watch list stuff is such a double edged sword. They tell you one thing and enforce the other. A double standard to say the least .
I mean, a “watch list” just means they watch it. Those chemicals aren’t illegal to possess, synthesize or distribute. Just don’t have any Sudafed in your medicine cabinet…
THAT IS A FACT FELLA. @@Sniperboy5551
@@Sniperboy5551actually the process makes no need for Sudafed. LoL but more money can be made selling purified chemicals than gold and oil combined
Just don't store intermediates, who knows what those watchlists test for. A innocent intermediate can get you in trouble. Always go through the process or at least have your work up papers handy for intentions
the government would hardly let you have water if they could get away with it.
I love when my favorite TH-cam chemists make watchlist chemicals lol. The synthesis be looking so interesting but I won’t risk attempts at it myself because here in the states certain restricted chemicals are taken very seriously when manufactured or possessed. That’s what you guys are here for! ☺️👌🏼
I agree with that, this isn't something I'd ever do if I didn't have this whole channel to legitimize its synthesis. If I was just doing this as a small-scale hobby I'd never want this just lying around.. even though it's legal, the optics are bad.
TH-cam has recommended a video on P2P purification to me… I just like watching chemistry
@@Sniperboy5551 that part! I’ve seen a few. I’ve literally seen the synthesis of methamphetamine base by the Lukehart reduction by a channel called TDC and it randomly popped up in my feed because of watching chemistry videos. 🤔🧐
@@integral_chemistryBro, have you ever made oxytocin? I'm very curious about this. How is it extracted from the ergot fungus? I really want to extract it myself. Can you teach me?
I think you can legally manufacture list chemicals for use in on going synthesis as long as you don't sell them
I just discovered this channel, but I regularly watch multiple other chemistry channels and I have to say that this one really stands out (from what I’ve seen so far) in terms of the pacing and level of detail/explanation. While I certainly enjoy the other chemistry channels I follow (I mean, obviously, because why else would I continue watching them?), each of them is just slightly off from what would be ideal for me in one or both of those aforementioned aspects - a bit too high-level, a tad more assumed knowledge than I possess, a beat slower or faster paced than my attention span and mental processing are equipped to handle, you get the idea. But this channel has been almost perfectly in-tune with my preferences on all counts. I’ve been able to follow along in real-time (i.e. without the need to frequently pause/rewind, or else fail to retain certain details) with full comprehension, and at the same time there has been very little of the unnecessary or redundant information (again, for my level of knowledge and comprehension) that typically causes my mind to wander.
tl;dr - Cool channel bro.

these are all good reliable procedures, but my personal favourite, and one of the most efficient with least waste, is one I've not yet seen demonstrated on TH-cam
it's the reduction of formaldoxime to methylamine; formaldoxime can be formed from the reaction between formaldehyde and hydroxylamine in basic conditions

Hexamine to methylamine
Have you tried using less water to start out with? I use about fivehundred milliliters for 80 g of hexamine.
When you add the hydrochloric acid, make sure the reaction doesn’t reach a temperature over 50°C . I use an ice bath at the beginning when I add the hydrochloric acid. And also give it about 3 to 4 hours of stirring, instead of the 2 to 3.
And when you heat it up, i keep the temperature around 90°C.
"I do not know how to make methylamine. I usually just use the barrel with the bee on it"
I taking this to straight to Heisenburg!!!!
This is really interesting. I'm glad you did it so I don't have to, you brave soul 😂 I would absolutely love to see how it turns out using bromine though
Bad things are not the worst things that can happen to us. Nothing is the worst thing that can happen to us!
The patrons remembered that Jesse Pinkman was flown to Mexico to instruct in the P2P method, asks for methylamine to get started and is told by the up-staged head chemist that they synthesize their own and don't carry stock on hand. Which of these three methods should a high school chemistry flunky select when attempting to fool said chemist into believing he actually knows his chemistry? My guess, one of the first two methods... you seem to know what you are doing and the hexane rearranging threw you a little curve ball. 😆
now i have a trusty base for a henry reaction!! Thanks brother
what is there a black cadillac on my door
It's a gas. You can use rhizobia bacteria to produce nitrogen gasses like ammonia and n20,
Which, when bubbled through methanol using simple pressure from fermentation, (methanol is produced by anaerobic fermentation of sugars by yeast)
Produces methylamine gas, which bubbles again, into a compressor, and into a K-Tank.
@Apoptosis Just if you don´t know there is a name for that extreme hygroscopicity of methylamine hydrochloride: deliquescence. It´s when a compound absorves so much moisture that it dissolves and turns into a puddle of concentrated solution.
I've read that before, unfortunately it's one of those words I've only ever read and never heard someone say out loud so I've been holding off on the embarrassment of the whole internet hearing me mispronounce it 😬
@@integral_chemistry Well, I don´t blame or judge you if you have mispronounced it! I know it´s nothing serious.
@chemicalmaster3267 lol well thank you! I'll do my best to give it a shot next time it comes up, although to save my sanity I usually avoid working with deliquescent chemicals. They're the worst
@@integral_chemistry Yeah, it´s almost impossible to do good weight measurements with them. They really are infuriating!

Terima kasih!
Thank you! 😁
Nice video! For the Hoffmann rearrangement, the methyl group is one of the worst migrating group in such reactions so I'm not surprised you're having a hard time with it. Bromine oxidation might be faster which could avoid competing side-reactions, but other than that I don't see how you could improve the migration of the methyl group just by using another oxidizer
Huh yeah I hadn't even considered that angle. My thinking was perhaps a calcium-methylamine complex or double-salt formation. I do agree though, at least in my own experience for this channel I've done a Hofmann rearrangement in making hydrazine and anthranilic acid, and they both worked very well and wete FAR less temperature sensitive.
The wild part is this exact synthesis was the very first Hofmann rearrangement, and the one the entire mechanism was based on (although I might need to fact check that)

@Gelatinocyte2 no, but I can't really explain without getting in trouble so just Google it (because somehow Wikipedia can get away with detailed instructions for making literally anything)
@@Gelatinocyte2 no but trust me nitroethane is how you actually end up on a government watchlist

Separating MeNH2.HCl and NH4Cl is best achieved using chloroform - methylamine salts are soluble in CHCl3

Awesome. Are you familiar with the sulfamic acid/methanol method?
Thank you! And yes I was actually considering adding that as a 4th method, but the length of the video would just have gotten far beyond what I'd wanna edit. I may do a part 2 with that method, paraformaldehyde, and possibly glycine decomposition because on paper that should work

Walter, You have the right to remain silent.
Did you use boiling chips or pumice in your distillations? I assume you did. Important info for newbies! Always use a boiling chip if you're not using a stir bar. It could make you or break you!!! Literally!
Also formaldehyde exists as formalin, usually 37%.
(Upon further viewing I see a stir bar in there)

Exactly, anything they say I can’t have I can make from scratch.
At 16 min, do you mean suck back or is the dissolution of methylamine so exothermic that the collection beaker contents heating to reflux is a concern?
I meant suck-back. Idk why but I've always called that reflux along with actual reflux (the kind you do intentionally with a condenser).
But yeah it'll suck-back HARD. Much worse than ammonia or HCl
Feather crystals. Mahalo
Well put across. 🤙
Dame bro this interaction bout to be lit
I recall reading somewhere a long time ago that simple thermal degradation of hexamine produces methylamine.
It does! It's in a gaseous form though so a bit tough to collect, but yeah hexamine does slowly decompose to methylamine even at room temp.. which is why hexamine smells like rotten fish sometimes
@@integral_chemistry so you're saying if you put hexamine on a hot plate, do it in a hotel room? ;)
@robertkeyes258 LMAO that would be quite a mean prank 🤣 stuff smells absolutely foul and really sticks around
@@integral_chemistry Indeed it would. That's not something I would do.
Try the vacuum reflux method!!
I think I definitely will! I also wanna try paraformaldehyde instead of formalin bc that should work the same

I found a random bucket that's disintegrating in my grandma's back yard. The top was broken and it was flooded with rain water, but it was filled with small yellow pellets that werent dissolving, which I believe to be sulfur pastille. I'm going to "help" her dispose of it because it's like 10 pounds at least. How would I go about confirming it is sulfur and not some other random fertilizer my grandpa bought and subsequently left us when he died?
Very cool find! I'd say easiest way is probably to try burning it with a lighter. If it starts burning with a cool blue flame, melts into a black goo, and smells sulfurous than it's definitely sulfur.
You could also just break a pellet open and smell, sulfur has a really distinct smell to it that's tough to get off your hands.
Oh and it's insoluble in literally everything except toluene
I'll for sure be going back within a week to get it! Jokes aside, I do want to get it off her property. She's 86 years old and had no idea it was there. The 5 gallon bucket it was being held in is being held together with a hope and a prayer. It was so sun bleached that the bucket was breaking if you looked at it funny. I'm going to try growing some rhombic sulfur crystals with it

Did you work under a fumehood?
I have absolutely no use for MA, so I never synthesized it yet.
I did 100% of synthesis #3 and portions of the first two under a fume hood, instead just feeding the gas outlet outside. Honestly should have all been done under a fume hood given the reactions going on are fairly complex and I'm not 100% certain on all potential byproducts.
And yeah.. I only made it to make the photographic developer Metol, which is insanely overpriced so I thought this would pair well with my hobby photography. I'm having a tough time synthesizing the other requisite chemical (hydroquinone) in a pure enough state to actually use. TBH trimethylamine is much more useful than methylamine in the kind of projects I'm working on.
Ah yes, metol is really useful but indeed expensive.
I am curios about the synthesis if you will show it.
Hydroquinone is cheap and easy to get where I live but also a potential carcinogen.
Just do go chucking pizzas on your roof. Its highly suspicious.
can i use sodium hypochlorite instead of calcium?
Yep, and in retrospect I actually think sodium hypochlorite would work better. Calcium hypochlorite is pretty bad at Hoffman reactions I've found.
Any Chemist can make any chemical from anything, I don't care how many you ban.
Yeah the whole notion of banning chemicals is absurd
Correction at 2:22
Methyleneamine gets reduced to methylamine
Formaldehyde gets oxidized to Formic acid

So why did Walter do not make his own and went under all the chaos?
Probably just to add a plot point. That show has quite a few silly plot points like that. I imagine Walt didn't want to make methylamine himself because it would have added a long extra step to a process he already barely had time for 😅
Why make when can steal
Still waiting on the coffee making video pulling a slight vacuum to keep the boiling point at 92°C.

Can you not use trimethylamine to make vapour methylamine
There is an extremely simple method that has been skipped and is not well know which also has a benefit of being able to produce nitroethane is MeOH is replaced by EtOH and the rearrangement done in the presence of Sodium nitrite. You boil, Sulfamic acid( I believe that is what it is its been like a decades since I study chemistry, its used to clean coffee makers and tons of other stuff dirt cheep) in methyl alcohol. Reflux this until its all consumed then ramp up the temperature and you are left with methylamine after a rearrangement. You cant use it for Ethylamine unfortunately because the high temperature rearrangement does not go as planned with higher alcohols but they are powerful ethylating agents before the rearrangement meaning Sodium Nitrites will yield Nitroethane. I gotta get back to you on the Cleaning agents name, its like, sulfonic acid amide or some shit like that. I did a write up on Science madness some years ago on the process. Only down side is you need to keep water out but that was not hard at all and I did it in a kitchen chemistry setting. High yields, large possibilities and dirt dirt cheep, my opinion it is the best method around.
[edit: Its Sulfamic Acid. You boil that in dry MeOH until the crystals are consumed, then jack up the temperature at which point you are left with Methylamine Sulfate. ]
This is crazy
formic acid = ant squeezins

why is acetone and toluene on the list here in aus you can buy a 55 gallon drum of the stuff no questions asked
I've actually got no idea.. I know acetone because it's just such a broadly useful solvent and maybe that's true for toluene as well? I know you can use both to make other chemicals that are one step closer to controlled compounds, but you could apply that logic to literally anything. Styrofoam is just a few simple steps from multiple controlled compounds, easy enough for any graduate chemistry student. That's why the whole concept is preposterous for individuals in terms of the scope of what constitutes "precursor".
