I'm seeing that the optimal solvent is heptane. Now (1.) would it be undesirable to use a heptane, diethyl ether mixture or (2.) would this mixture need to be distilled? (3.) Is heptane polar or non polar?

If the answers happen to fall under the following.

(1.) Yes dont use diethyl ehter only use heptane.

(2.) Yes distill it unless you know some other way to seperate those two solvents.

(3.) Heptane is ??  (this one doesnt really matter too much at this time, I juss askin')

So if the unfortunate responses to my 3 questions are as I fearfully replied above. Then I just have two more simple questions.

(1a.)Have you ever tried using heptane and diethyl ether for this crystallization technique?

(1b.)Do you happen to know the boiling points of heptane and diethyl ether and do they need to be fractionally distilled or will a simple vacuum distillation work?

Now nobody in their right mind outside a professionally equiped laboratory wants to fuck around distilling ether. Especially me.

anyone ????
