How can I synthesise triethylenamineSandmeyer - 18-12-2006 at 14:29
Is it only me that is getting sick and tired of unscrupulous thread-starters who only have to say: "How do I make this?", especially if that is their
first post and if it shows that they have done 0 research on the matter.Blind Angel - 18-12-2006 at 15:25
well there seem to be a rush of those lately, and I'm not sure anymore that they are Hive remains. Is Synthetikal down?Nicodem - 19-12-2006 at 00:52
Actually, it appears most of these arrogant requests are done by some chemists or engineers that expect this forum to be a free service for reference
searches. They are obviously just attempts to get others do the work they are paid for. This is supposed to be a forum about amateur science and not
profit science, so just ignore them. After all most of the 1-post members don't even care to elaborate what compound they are talking about or they
tend to never even reply in the thread. They just throw the bait and wait for what catches. For example, what the hell is "triethylenamine"? The
"ethylene" group is –CH2CH2-, so triethyleneamine would perhaps be the H2N–CH2CH2–NH–CH2CH2–NH–CH2CH2–NH2 oligomer. But how can anybody
be sure when one can find this name as the misspelled name for triethylamine even in some crappy scientific literature? So I can only conclude that
these people are some shitty chemists that fear to ask colleagues for advice for fear of showing their ignorance publicly.haribo - 19-12-2006 at 04:49

I would BUY it. Don't damned well ask what its used for. Its a very common commercial chemical and you can, with just a little ingenuity, set up an
account with a chem-supply house or two.unionised - 19-12-2006 at 06:53
As has been pointed out, it's not a well defined chemical so buying it might be tricky.
