Mescaline cleanup with ethanol/d-limonene (non-toxic)

Has anyone heard of someone doing the mescaline cleanup using Ever clear/d-limonene combo in the correct mixture? 69ron had talked about doing it sometime ago. Or of another natural cleanup?


I’m thinking a healthier less risky to purchase wash would be a mix of ethanol or isopropyl alcohol and d-limonene at the right ratio. I know that either of the two mixed in d-limonene can approximate the polarity of MEK if mixed just right, but I don’t know the ratio to use.
 
I'd either re-a/b (and pull with limonene and salt with FASA), or I'd wash with cold dry IPA or acetone, or I'd use hot IPA to dissolve or partly dissolve the mescaline and then let it cool down to recrystallize.

Ethanol might work if you have absolute ethanol. My guess is if its normal methanol with a certain percentage of water, the mescaline will be too soluble in it and you'd lose some yield washing with it. Maybe cooling down will reduce solubility and loss will be negligible, dont know.

Also this depends on the salt form the mescaline is in.

I wouldnt mix limonene as a washing solvent because it doesnt evap clean, it'd leave your mescaline with too much limonene residue. Unless you do FASI/FASA and then wash your fumarates with the IPA/acetone, that works great. More info can be found around the nexus :)
