Cause it’s a place in cannabusiness that’s for anything. If you’d like to move it to a hemp/D8 thread feel free

Acceptable yes, just keep in mind to degass the heptane via sparging with argon. May need a time elongation but you will be able to visibly see the change as well.

She’s a shorty, 12hrs plus is definitely not needed, maybe at 1%> but at 2% you get much faster cleaner reactions

No doubt you can get it at high % D8 with 1% ptsa but the reaction won’t be as clean or as fast. I’ve done 15kg successfully at a time no variances from 1kg runs. Only time. This is the % I found comfortable & fool proof.

Every time I read “1:1,” no one specifies that they mean by that - whether its 1 kg solvent per kg substrate, or 1 L solvent per kg substrate. I’ve been assuming L/kg.
What is the largest batch size you’ve attempted this at? 2% ptsa diluted in 1 L per kg strikes me as not enough solvent to temper the exotherm. When you charge acid to the solution at 75 C, I imagine it shoots to like 110C in a matter of minutes?
