What is acid/base extraction used for besides DMT?

[Maxx]

I'm sure its used to extract legal substances.

Any that you know of?

I'm preparing to do a science project on it and i'm not sure if this would be a suitable subject.

Caffeine's probably a good start.

Acid/base extractions are commonplace in college level organic chem labs. The beauty of A/B extractions is that they can be used to isolate acidic organics i.e. carboxylic acids as well as basic organics i.e. amines. Most college level orgo lab books discuss how the A/B or liquid liquid extraction works in theory and practice.

Would you mind helping me set up a technique for extracing caffeing if you have time?
