Binary solvent mix that approximates the polarity of chloroform?

Hi, so SWIM has been extracting Yopo/Vilca for a long time. It got it’s problem, mostly the toxins are difficult to remove. The one time SWIM has ended up with pure bufotenine was when doing an A/B using chloroform.

SWIM cannot get chloroform anymore without arising suspicion.

Is there a binary solvent mix using easy to get solvents (i.e., heptane, MEK, xylene, etc.) that would approximate the polarity of chloroform?

Hey Ron I don't know if this will help or not.Here is a link to a page about making chloroform.

SWIM doesn't want to make it. He prefers a binary mix that's easy to purchase.

perhaps ethyl acetate/hexane or heptane mix, something like 1:2 or 1:3 ratio.

especially in a column with silica, one could separate those simple tryptamines with an ethyl acetate mix. dmt would elute first.

swim has done this in his synth attempt back in the day

An ethyl acetate/hexane mix like benzyme suggests seems fairly promising, but as I recall, SWIY had problems finding a decent source of ethyl acetate.

I know you said you don't want to make it, but the synthesis is really pretty simple. SWIM actually synthesized it back in high school chemistry lab.

one may find EtOAc in "acetone-free" nail polish remover, but one would need to distill it to separate it from the dyes and perfume crap they put in it.
