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.

well there seem to be a rush of those lately, and I'm not sure anymore that they are Hive remains. Is Synthetikal down?

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.



…there is a human touch of the cultist “believer” in every theorist that he must struggle against as being unworthy of the scientist. Some of the greatest men of science have publicly repudiated a theory which earlier they hotly defended. In this lies their scientific temper, not in the scientific defense of the theory. - Weston La Barre (Ghost Dance, 1972)

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.

As has been pointed out, it's not a well defined chemical so buying it might be tricky.
