Elementary Productions: Synthesis of Isopropyl Nitrite

Keepmovin2000 Says:

Jul 27, 2011 - there are a few websites out there that list all the quantities and concentrations. The only thing I would say that he should elaborate on is the type of sulfuric acid he used. I think since his label says it's concentrated that it must be in the field of 18 molecules or so, but can't be sure. IPA is at least 90 percent, and sodium nitrite would be in the lab quality grade.

Keepmovin2000 Says:

Jul 27, 2011 - ok...I know it's a bit of a pain in the butt to go out and buy a magnetic stiring machine...but do it. IF you stir by hand, the yield is only half of what you would get (if you're lucky). If you're really that broke, then look up on youtube the phrase "homemade magnetic stirer" or something like that. There are at least 7 people out there who have gone through the trouble to help you make your own at home with easy to get supplies. Before I made my own, my yield sucked...but not anymore!

Oct 1, 2011 - I've made small amounts of IPA for personal use and it is indeed extremely toxic compared to isobutyl nitrite. Perhaps it's due to its lower molecular weight. It causes very low blood pressure and long lasting fatigue. It's so potent that quick sniffs is all your body can handle. And once your body starts to OD on it, you have to stop because each subsequent inhalation makes the unpleasant symptoms get worse and worse. You will have to lie down until you feel well enough to walk again.

Oct 11, 2011 - I have a synthesis method, mix powder sodium inside the isopropyl alcohol then put nitrogen dioxide through it. However this method is quite dangerous I suppose, breathing in nitrogen dioxide is fatal also the product sodium hydroxide is an alkali.

JonIsGangstar Says:

Oct 11, 2011 - It's because of it's lower boiling point, it evaporates faster and hence you inhale more.

kenjoneslee Says:

Oct 12, 2011 - Recently, I have had more success making IPA that doesn't seem to have toxic lingering effects. These undesireable side effects could be do to impurities, such as nitrogen dioxide, a yellowish brown gas. If the reaction temps are not cold enough, then this gas visibly forms and this is completely undesirable. 20ml H20 plus half tsp sodium nitrite, mix, put in freezer. 2ml precooled sulfuric acid to 5ml 91% rubbing alcohol. Put in freezer to keep reaction cold. Add acid/al mix to Na H20.

kenjoneslee Says:

Oct 12, 2011 - Final product will be clear yellow and should smell aromatic, fruity, pungent but NOT burned or acidic. I tried other ways of adding the ingredients, but this works best. Remember NO brown smoke, keep ice cold without forming ice and the nitrite should be AROMATIC, almost pleasant smelling.

kenjoneslee Says:

Oct 23, 2011 - I now am making inhalable nitrites with isobutyl alcohol. It's a thousand times better than IPA. Doesn't make my blood pressure drop precpitously and onset of pleasurable effects slowly build and recovery is fast. But stability of finished product doesn't last long, even in fridge. Once the odor starts to change, it should be pitched.

kenjoneslee Says:

Oct 31, 2011 - Temperature is critical. Has to be around 0 degrees C. Too cold or too warm and the brew fizzes and gives off brown Nitrogen Dioxide smoke and once that happens, it should be discarded. Invest in a temp gauge. Also, with the isobutyl recipe, I am finding that the bottom layer is clear aqua blue and the top layer is clear and nearly colorless when the temp and ratios of ingredients are optimal.

kenjoneslee Says:

Nov 5, 2011 - Tried making many small batches of Isobutyl nitrite, but have failed mostly. Cannot get the clear aqua color to repeat. Temps under 0 Celsius don't work at all. Precipitate and toxic smoke forms. I got once small batch to work today. The isobutyl nitrite was like OTC, good effects. Main difference was temp was warmer and I added the al/acid mix to aqueous NaNO very slowly, drop by drop. Almost clear colorless fluid formed under ester.

kenjoneslee Says:

Nov 5, 2011 - The good batches of IBN smell better and effects occur more slowly, commencing in a warm head rush that lasts for awhile. And of course, you feel like a total wanton slut at the peak of the rush. The bad batches cause faster effects, like rapid heart beat, but that warm, slow gush to a horny state of being doesn't happen. The odor is unpleasant as well.

kenjoneslee Says:

Nov 6, 2011 - I've tried to make IBN many times, but only succeeded 3 times. Apparently, if the bottom layer is hazy or cloudy, the batch is ruined. I'm trying to figure out why I can't repeat the successes. A ruined batch is potent, but not in a good way. And it smells acidic. There may be multiple forms of nitrite forming when the conditions aren't exact. The haziness and precipitate must be impurities. Even when there is no Nitrogen Oxide smoke or fizzing, the batch is ruined if it's cloudy.

kenjoneslee Says:

Nov 22, 2011 - Today, I made my best IBN ever, as good as OTC. Most online sources say to add the acid and alcohol to one another before adding to the sodium. That wasn't working for me. Instead, I added the alcohol to the sodium in water; then slowly added, drop by drop, the acid, stirring constantly to prevent too much concentrated heat, which causes fizzing and Nitrogen dioxide. Today's brew gave a wonderful euphoric high. IBN was made for sex.

Feb 8, 2012 - hi,i like the nitrite that gives very instant head spin, the one that i produced gave the head spin slowly , do you know how to make the product that gives instant head spin, like real fast instead of slow.

Mar 4, 2012 - this stuff is bad. Don't use it. The rumors are true. Read up on the negative claims. Go ahead...google it. The positive claims are really just a cover-up. I learned this the hard way. I started seeing my body degrade like crazy. This stuff is really bad. There is a reason they have been trying to ban it. I truly believed it was just misunderstood until I used it for about a year. Now I have serious health issues. Don't make it, don't buy it. Don't use it

canopyoflove1 Says:

Mar 4, 2012 - don't use it too often. You will regret it. It will wear down your immune system and you will begin noticing changes in your body. I like the stuff too...especially with sex...but it leads to problems with your health. It did mine. If this offends you, sorry, just want to get the word out.

Keepmovin2000 Says:

Mar 13, 2012 - after using this stuff for many months, I have begun to have huge health problems with my resporatory system as well catching some illnesses due to lowered immune function. Don't use this stuff. It really is bad. I no longer make it. I no longer use it. I now try to let people know that it's bad stuff. Really bad. I'm not brainwashed...I am a free thinker who learned this through experience. Don't use it.

Keepmovin2000 Says:

Mar 13, 2012 - I totally agree with you. I don't understand why there is so much misinformation out there about this stuff. It's really bad people! It will cause you to get sick and have health problems. It's really that bad. I've never tried anything that actually caused me health problems...most antidrug information out there is a bit based in fear. However, this drug really is BAD!

Apr 22, 2012 - it is rumored that isobutyl nitrite is more potent then isopropyl nitrite, so it is normal; just sniff more.

kenjoneslee Says:

May 8, 2012 - Everything is biologically harmful in excess, including food, water and oxygen. That said, isobutyl nitrite has better effects and is less harmful than isoproply. Use pure reagents. Keep them ice cold when mixing. The acid turns the sodium solution blue. Add alcohol quickly, mix and yellow top layer will form. Aspirate off. Should smell pungent and aromatic. If not, it's a bad mix. CRITICAL STEP...wash with sodium carbonate solution 2 to 3x or acid residue will harm your throat/lungs.

kenjoneslee Says:

May 8, 2012 - Sodium carbonate is washing soda, NOT baking soda. Do not make large batches. Stick with 10 to 20 ml. Unless you can dry the nitrite immediately(remove all the unseen water), it won't last long. 10ml should last a good hour of steady use. In freezer, will store longer. But it's best fresh.

kenjoneslee Says:

May 9, 2012 - Isobutyl nitrite and the numbing agent benzocaine are the best sexual enhancers. Unlike the rest of the animal kingdom, humans have the ability to get creative - find enhancers to make sex more fun...lots more.
