You're right it doesn't need anything to migrate into the non-polar. But will ALL of it go in? I always thought yes until I read ChemisTryptaMan's threads on adding salt to increase the ionic strength of the solution. Him and a few others who have tried have all claimed increase in yields... some people up to 3%.
I've never heard of anyone getting a 3% yield. But I haven't really been keeping up with the latest's TEK's so maybe this is the norm now?
I'm not sure what you mean by switch from Naptha as I have stated I'm using Toluene.
And I added 120 NaOH to help increase the ionic strength. I wouldn't call it a waste as it's doing exactly what I want it to do...

You're all correct in the fact this doesn't really NEED to be done. But if adding some salt to your basic water is going to increase your yield by 0.5% it's a pretty good idea as it takes literally 2 extra minutes to do. The point of experimenting is to see if there is a better way that's worth while. If we all just find one way and stick to it than it will never grow. I am just running an experiment to see the difference in the ionic strengths. If pKa's are the only thing that effect it then I should have the same yield in every bottle right? We'll see.

Yeah I had many psychedelic experiences before trying DMT. They were all great in their own way. The thing I personally don't like about a lot of different psychedelics is the amount of time they last for. I find my self getting fed up with them after a long while of being on them. So when I sampled DMT it was the perfect fit for me. I have never tried it orally, but I'm not opposed to the idea.
I wouldn't say DMT changed me as a person but it did effect me in the way I look at things. I don't know it's hard to explain... I wasn't a spiritual person before at all and I would still lean on the side of not being one now, but now I don't think I know everything about it.. If that makes sense?
Chemistry isn't my only love I also love PC gaming. Strategy online gaming specifically. Anything from Starcraft to DOTA/LOL to age of empires. All the RTS games If there are any players on here I would love to add you for a few games!

I have removed the section from my second post. Sorry about that.
Peace out
