6-APB:
BEATS THE SHIT OUT OF ME!

Every damned sample gives different results! It’s all fake for all I
know.
The 6-APB “Benzofury” sample was from the “third sample batch”, and is
wonderful, and is entirely different from the final product.
The other
sample marked crap was contaminated/adulterated crap mfg’ed by Eric, and is a
mixture of at least two active compounds. It has been making the rounds,
unfortunately.
Decent sample will be coming early 2011 to put this mess to
rest.

All I know for sure on test results is Robadope should be
positive, and Simons negative.

5-IAI
Marquis -
brown-grey
Mecke – yellow
Mandellin – no reaction
Robadope -
Positive
Simons – Negative
NOTE: Previous 5-IAI results posted were for
FAKE PRODUCT. The old, inaccurate results have been removed.
By the way,
don’t bother getting the real thing. It sucks – ~400mg doses, nothing exciting,
and in some people (like me) it produces nothing by dysphoria. At only 50mg, i
experienced anhedonia and depression for 6-8 hours, with no pleasurable effects.
Favorite food tasted like cardboard, favorite games were a chore, etc. But I
digress…

4-Flouroamphetamine:
Marquis – no reaction if only
small amount used. If you dump a whole pile of it in, it’ll turn brownish orange.
Mecke – no reaction
Mandellin – no reaction
Robadope -
Positive
Simons – Negative

Key points to take away:

These reagents are not sufficient for differentiation between cathinones of
similar structure.
These reagents are not sufficient for detection or
identification of 4-FA or pipirazines, nor weak OTC stimulants – though 4-FA
will test positive with robadope.
These reagents are not sufficient to
confidently confirm presence of mephedrone.
These reagents are not
sufficient to confidently rule out the presence of most cathinones in
combination with other agents that produce strong colors. Sniff test and Simons
may be helpful here.
These reagents are not sufficient to confirm or rule
out presence of desoxypipiradrol in combination with other agents, especially as
the active dose is very low. Luckily I am not aware of this horrible drug
showing up as an adulterant.
2-AI, which many people have reported dangerous
reactions from, stands out like a sore thumb when tested with the mandellin
reagent.
There is more fake 6-APB than real 6-APB on the market.
MDAI on
the market is so filthy that the impurities confound identification with the
marquis reagent.
These reagents are not sufficient to identify MDAT (luckily,
it is obscure (hence unlikely to be sold as something else), not particularly
potent or dangerous, and has a very distinctive appearance – yellow translucent
crystals between 1/16th and 1/4th of an inch along their largest dimension.

Mandellin – Orange fading
to clear over time

2C-T-4:
Marquis – Almost no reaction,
slight brown.

time

2C-T-7:
Marquis – Almost no reaction, slight brown.

Mecke – Black/dark purple, fading slowly if at all.
Mandellin – Orange
fading to clear over time

Key points:
These reagents are suitable for
identifying 4-halo 2C’s; differentiation between them is possible but difficult.

These reagents are suitable for identifying 4-alkyl 2C’s; differentiation
between them is not realistically possible.
These reagents are excellent for
identifying 4-thioalkyl 2C’s; differentiation between them is not practical
without reference samples.
I am unable to replicate results indicating that
2C-E produces a green or yellow color, yet these chemicals are known good, and
produce effects that are in every way consistent with expectations, including
the characteristic durations and dosages for 2C-D/E/P.

Conclusion/comments:
These reagents are sufficient to detect
synthetic cannabinoids in common circulation
These reagents are sufficient to
distinguish between classes of synthetic cannabinoids, but not between closely
related compounds.
It is as yet unverified whether these are suitable for
analysis of smoke blends, or determination of adulterants in cannabis
