Amphetamine Syntheses Revised Industrial Edition (Expanded & Improved) by Otto Snow
Amphetamine Syntheses (1998) was a global blockbuster. The new and improved edition is now available, jam packed with state of the art drug chemistry, hot new formulas written by some of the greatest minds of the 20th century. Small town mom and pop labs across America to the multi-ton labs of global organized crime, how they make drugs and what they use to make them.
Otto has put together the most explicit syntheses on the bulk production of psychedelic amphetamines, precursors and reductions. MDA, MDMA (XTC), DOB, TMA, PMA, MDEA (Eve), DOM (STP) & other popular stimulants, eg. methylcathinone, phenetermine, aminorex, ephedrine. It is easy reading yet, explicit, hardcore, psychedelic amphetamine chemistry. eg. Methylcathinone and other psycho-stimulants from non-list chemicals. Production of precursors from fertilizer, spices, barks, seeds and oils. Expanded metal & electrolytic reductions. Bulk production of reduction & list chemicals from solvents & common chemicals at the local hardware store. Hundreds of reactions are described, current drug laws and list chemicals.
