i seen something a little while back that said it was possible to make mbk from mibk. can anyone tell me if i'm on the right track.

Please tell us what these chemicals are, I've never heard of mibk, or mbk.
Posts that are in detail are way more useful my friend!

MBK appears to be methyl butyl ketone after a google search. MiBK I would assume to be methyl isobutyl ketone. joejoe it is important to post details
as kclo4 says, if you want help; we are not mind readers.

yeah right sorry, methyl benzyl ketone and methyl isobutyl ketone.

Wait, what? Benzyl?
sparky (~_~)

I dont see any way you're going to convert methyl isobutyl ketone to methyl benzyl ketone. Its NOT going to happen. But as sparkgap is suggesting I
think you made a mistake and meant methyl BUTYL ketone, not BENZYL. In any case, I still dont think you can isomerise easily, if at all.

It is actually very easy to transform mibk to mbk in a single step. All you have to do is eliminate i from mibk and you are left with pure mbk.

Hahaha I like it! Maybe I shall give it a try when I've got time

This sounds like a job for the Isomer Fairy
