How do you convert tryptamine to tryptamine hydrogen chloride (HCl). Just add HCl (aq)?

  • Author

Should i use dilute or concentrated HCl? Equimolar amounts ie. ratio of tryptamine : HCl 1:1?

Equimolar amounts should work.

 

As long as the Ph of your solution ends up being lower then the pKa of tryptamine it should be fully protonated I believe. (Which will be so if you use an equal molar amount of both to get it fully nutralized since tryptamine is a base.)

Bah acid base stuff anoys me for some reason.

Yawn.

There are plenty of net resources for this kinda thang.

Use with respect. Some nice scientific reports. Say hi to big brother as you read, though you have nothing to hide...

I don't think you posted the right link.

 

But anyways yeah, this sort of thing could have been answered real quick with a fast google.
