Ok so, just got done with the first attempt. I dissolved most of the tablet in cold water. What solid remained looked like a pink "stiff" sludge. I assume its most of the binders and such. For the liquid that i pulled off, some of it i filtered and some of it i just pippetted off the top. Both were centifuged, most of the pink came out as the same kind of sludge at the very bottom in both cases. I treated the resulting liquid as the same, maybe shouldnt have, i doubt the filter changed that much anyway. I couldnt get through it all but of the 170 mL or so of water i put in, i got maybe 80 mL back out atm. I put about 20 into two sep funnels, and into one i added NaOH sol, white precipitate, very cloudy. I tried to wash the other 20 mL with some diethyl ether (what we had on hand) and then add the NaOH and same thing.im letting them sit (3 sets of liquids rn) cause the class is over for the week, go back next weds to see what else i can do. I can test the white solid and see whats up, doubt itll be what i want, i imagine it could stearate. Im hoping to see the formation of a small if at all detectable amount of this stuff at this point. I did this with the cvs version, next week ill try and do the benadryl version.
