2 litres each of acetone, IPA, DCM and HCl and 1 litre each of toluene, ethyl acetate, petroleum ether and phosphoric acid.

Got it from Darrant chemicals in the UK, they have decent pricing and will sell to individuals.


You lucky person living somewhere where buying acetone, HCl, or toluene is not illegal.

Do you have specific plans for them or are they just "when the time comes" chemicals?

Today I am getting a quartz tube that I ordered a week ago. I am pretty excited.

Unfortunately, my alumina/silicate paper got stuck in a warehouse in China, so I am waiting for some to arrive from California.

Later I am going to locate or order some ferricyanide compound.

I was walking around the neighborhood and I found, left out on the curb, some gardening supplies, including a bottle of rooting hormone, 0.1% indole-3-butyric acid. Probably gonna cruise down Rosemary St. tonight with some scissors and grow myself a rosemary army :D

Over the past week I bought potassium hydroxide, nickel, sodium thiosulfate, sulfur flour, sodium hydroxide, ammonium nitrate, and urea. I also got a graphite crucible in the mail. Tomorrow I am getting my DC power supply and making some bromine.

Calcium chloride is extremely useful. I've gone through about half of a five pound canister in a few months.

Strangely enough I got almost the exact same stuff two weeks ago. (Potassium Hydroxide, Sodium Hydroxide, sulfur, ammonium nitrate, urea, and nickel) Im waiting for a graphite crucible to come in the mail, and I'm meeting with a guy on craigslist to buy a DC power supply later.

I received my order of 50g potassium iodide and 50g iodine today

DSC_2404.jpg - 2.5MB

is there any OTC source of sodium thiosulphate in Aus or a procedure to synthesize sodium thiosulphate from sodium metabisulphite? (I would like to perform the iodine clock reaction)

NedsHead you can react NaOH with plain sulfur to form sodium thiosulfate, although there are a few issues with the process. I made a thread about it a while ago, but nobody replied :(

Thanks guys, looks like I'll have to put it off until I order some thiosulphate, nice work Oscilllator, I'll also be giving that synth a try when I have some time, with a bit of luck the heads of SM can refine the process and remove the polymer

I'm busy to collect my next order from Chemist's paradise Poland.
Some examples:
2l 1,4 Dioxane, 2l 1-Propanole, 1l Acetaldehyde, 250g Anthracene, 330g Chloral hydrate, 3l Cyclohexanole, 200g Diphenlyamine, 250g Potassium bromate, 2kg Chloroacetic acid, 250g Sodium azide, 1 l Nitrobenzene etc. pp.

Still waiting for the several chlorinating agents like thionyl chloride or PCl3.

Also 1 kg of sodium metal. I don't need all of it, if someone is interested in amounts, preferrably from Europe because of shipping cost, please pm me.

I picked up another canister of calcium chloride since it is something I tend to use a lot. I haven't even broken out my barium salts....

Chloropyrazine. I need a small quantity of oxalyl chloride and the stuff costs too much at TCI. Anyone got 10-20 grams he wants to sell or trade for?

I ordered quite a few other things from this supplier, but they only had 1/10 of what I ordered in stock. Needless to say they are a smaller supplier oriented towards high school chemistry classes, and brushed me off for the rest of the order, so this is all that I received from them.

Sodium Ferrocyanide
Sodium Sulfate
Sodium Sulfite
Barium Carbonate
Benzene 4L

Another US supplier....
Phthalic Anhydride
Acetophenone
Hydroxylamine sulfate
Benzoyl Chloride
Acetonitrile

Some cerium oxide just arrived from china. It will do as a stand-in for the element collection until I can afford that kilo lump I have my eyes on. It was cheap enough and I will probably have some fun trying to get it to react with something with the eventual goal of conjuring up some cerium salts.

Strange thing was, it was registered mail -- I had to sign for it. And it was labelled as "assorted cold dishes". That's a new benchmark for inaccuracy.



[Edit]
Two litres of sulfuric acid arrived at the door. Crystal clear 98%. It's been a good day.

I might be interested in some NaBH4. I've thought about buying, some, but I don't have a specific purpose for it yet.
