33g of leaf and trunk bark was harvested in Spring/ Summer (just after flowering for memory?). From Acacia Pravissima.
Using the scaling down version of the minimum polymer tek an extraction was completed.
-275ml of water
-3.3g of ascorbic acid
-17.5g of potassium chloride
Cooked for 45mins trying to keep under 68 degrees celcisus (went over a few times but did not exceed 85 degrees).
-15g of NaOH added for base
-Naphtha was used as a pull while it was still hot. 2x 100ml pulls
Extraction was more or less rushed due to proof of concept.
Literature states "Up to 0.44% alkaloids from leaves and stems, mostly phenethylamine" from a 1944 study.
Half of the first pull was evaporated on fan and yielded 1.2% in crystals, when scraped this turned to a paste (likely due to fats) total yield must be over 2%.
Re-xed majority in naphtha and combined with other pulls. Currently seeing if it freeze precipitates anything. Crystals didn't initially have a tryptamine smell. Yellow/ yellow-green color.
After isolating a small amount of crystals/ paste I didn't re-x, it hardened to a powder and did indeed have a tryptamine like smell not nn-dmt or at least solely nn-dmt.
When burnt it melts and vaporizes quickly with a burnt plastic smell sort of. No bioassay has been conducted for safety reasons.
Likely plant fats and phenethylamine? Does phenethylamine crystalize?
Edit: Ehrlich test- eventually went a red purple.
And yes apparently phenethylamine crystalizes.
