Best Solvents & Conditions

Migrated topic.

A FOAF wants to know ideal conditions/solvents for educational purposes. Think outside of Home-Depot and household solvents. FOAF has accessibility to research-grade solvents.

First, in acidic bath, what is the optimal pH?
Second, for defatting, what is the ideal solvent?
Third, for basic bath, what is the ideal pH?
Fourth, what is the ideal nonpolar solvent to extract from basic aqueous solution?
Fifth, what is the ideal solvent/method for recrystallization?

Please don't limit FOAF's choices from what's readily available or alternatives.
