New AlCl3 Replacement Catalyst Experiment Needed

Help Support and Requests
1

I have an idea for a reusable and more stable catalyst to replace AlCl3 in CBD to THC, but have no capabilities to test it. The catalyst is for sale and rather pricey for large scale, but could be recaptured multiple times theoretically. I have done as much research as is possible without a real experiment.

I am looking for someone that has the ability to run some trials and tests (GCMS and then HPLC preferred). Small scale trials under various conditions to hopefully limit iso-thc’s one-pot catalytic conversion. I have many conversion ideas without options to test as well.

Thanks

Are you offering to pay for time and materials?

No because the information itself is valuable. A quick test would take an hour and only one HPLC run if the TLC looked finished. So around $300 total given the appropriate lab space/equipment. If I paid for everything I would expect the information to remain proprietary to me. This was to be my PhD project.

Loaded beads are indeed the best route
Sadly the best brads must be made in house for it to be viable but silica loaded beads work well
