Mescaline Tek Question
    #9984018 - 03/16/09 06:28 PM (14 years, 10 months ago)

I've got a quick mescaline extraction question. After failing for an unknown reason with the B/A teks, we have decided to go with the alcohol extraction. My question is, should you defat the powder before using the alcohol to extract??

Steps we plan on using.

1 - Place cactus powder in a jug.

2 - Mix with xylene, shake, drain out xylene.

3 - Add isopropyl alcohol to the cactus. Get a few extractions.

4 - Evap the alcohol.

My questions are in step 2. Will the mescaline dissolve in the xylene?? If yes than why are there no straight to xylene teks out there? Can you substitute xylene for alcohol in the straight alcohol teks??

although i'm not personally experienced with mesc teks, i do know that xylene and alcohol cannot be substituted for one another, as the first is non-polar and the second is polar.

Mescaline is soluble in non-polar solvents (like xylene) under basic conditions - so as long as the powder mixture is acidic then the xylene should just strip out the fats. I haven't actually done an alcohol extraction (yet), but I was thinking of doing the initial extraction into methanol / ethanol, and then maybe doing a defatting run with eg xylene - the result should be the same, but using much less xylene.
