Benzophenyl bromide

Benzophenyl bromide is diphenylmethyl bromide. It is used as an intermediate to the synthesis of Modafinil, Adrafinil, and N-Methyl-Modafinil.

Tony: I synthesized Modafinil by using Benzophenyl Bromide.

Flopcorn

The pieces of popcorn that don't pop even though you put 2 minutes and shake the bag. Flopcorn might seem like a bad thing, but if you think about it, flopcorn means less popcorn to steal flavor from the other popcorn, and a more buttery, saltier popcorn.

I ate all the popcorn and found flopcorn in the bottom of the bag, it was disappointing, but then I think back to how much better the other popcorn taste, then cheered up.

Sodium Thioglycolate

Sodium Thioglycolate is a chemical used in some hair products and also in the intermediate of the synthesis of Modafinil, Adrafinil, and N-Methyl-Modafinil. Sodium Thioglycolate is synthesized from Thioglycolic acid and sodium hydroxide and then you boil it and then let it dry in a vacuum chamber to eliminate water.

Tony: I synthesized sodium thioglycolate from thioglycolic acid and sodium hydroxide.

Ethyl Chloride

Ethyl chloride (EtCl, Chloroethane), is a chemical compound with chemical formula CH3CH2Cl, once widely used in producing tetraethyllead, a gasoline additive. It is a colorless, flammable gas or refrigerated liquid with a faintly sweet odor. Ethyl chloride is a lab solvent and an intermediate in the synthesis of 2-methyl-2-butanol through the formation of the grignard reagent, ethyl magnesium chloride and a grignard reaction with acetone, followed by hydrochloric acid work-up to yield 2-methyl-2-butanol. Ethyl chloride is synthesized by reacting ethanol with hydrochloric acid and zinc chloride catalyst. Ethyl chloride can also be used along with calcium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, or potassium hydroxide to extract freebase arecoline out of the betel nut. Then react it with HBr (Hydrogen Bromide) to get Arecoline Hydrobromide.

I reacted ethanol with hydrochloric acid and a zinc chloride catalyst. I got ethyl chloride. I then extracted freebase arecoline from the betel nut and reacted it with hydrogen bromide gas to get Arecoline Hydrobromide.

I took some ethyl chloride and added anhydrous diethyl ether and magnesium turnings to get ethyl magnesium chloride. Then I reacted the Et-MgCl (ethyl magnesium chloride) with acetone. Then I took the 2m2bO-MgCl (2-methyl-2-butoxymagnesium chloride) and reacted it with hydrochloric acid to get 2-methyl-2-butanol.

TP-Br

TP-Br is 2-ThioPhenyl Bromide. TP-Br (2-ThioPhenyl Bromide, 2-thienylbromide, and 2-Bromothiophene) can be synthesized by bromination of Thiophene (TP-H, ThioPhenyl Hydride) with bromine in Carbon Tetrachloride. TP-Br is used as an intermediate to synthesize TP2P (ThioPhenyl-2-Propanone) by reacting it with ethyl acetoacetate and sodium ethoxide and CuI (Copper iodide) catalyst.

I synthesized TP2P using the TP-Br and ethyl acetoacetate.

Euchemics

Euchemics is the belief and/or practice of improving the quality of the human population(sometimes, even to the point of upgrading people to become superhuman) through designer drugs, anti anxiety drugs, safe stimulants, medicines, certain psychedelics, Nootropics, and research chemicals in combination with a healthy lifestyle. It's upgrading humanity, sometimes to the point of becoming superhuman. It is a social philosophy advocating the improvement of human life through responsible use of non-toxic drugs to achieve higher intelligence, treat mental illnesses, increasing strength, increasing life-span, curing deseases, and the ultimate goal of near indestructability. Also to reduce the number of people who use toxic drugs by educating society to say no to toxic drugs and using non-toxic drugs as an alternative. The ultimate goal of euchemics is achieving near indestructability. Side goals of euchemics include, super happiness, societal peace, superpowers, superhuman intelligence, ect.

Dude 1: I just consumed a small amount of GBL to deal with anxiety.
Chick 1: I consumed prolintane, phenylpiracetam and fluorenol to help me study.
Dude 2: I mixed cyclohexylaminopropane in this juice I drank to run the 3 K race.
All three: We upgraded ourselves with euchemics. All right!

Nootropics

Nootropics are smart drugs with little to no side effects. Effects range from increasing social skills and mild entactogenic empathogenic effects , to improving memory and focus, to relaxation and anxiety relief, to wakefulness enhancers, to stimulants stacked with Tropoflavin to prevent brain damage, to BDNF inducers (grows more brain cells), to pills that help you reduce the negative feelings from past memories (especially traumatic ones). Cholinergics and other groups are also in there.

Examples of nootropics:

Wakefulness enhancers: Modafinil, Armodafinil, Hydrafinil, Flodafinil, Adrafinil, Fladrafinil, Modafiendz, Wakix, and Sunosi.

Stimulants: Caffeine, Theobromine, Propylhexedrine, Cyclohexylaminopropane, Dimwthylamylamine, Cyclopentamine, Thiopropamine, Methiopropamine stacked with Tropoflavin, Ethiopropamine, Arecoline Hydrobromide (ArcoFuel), Nicotine vape, 3-FA, D,L-Deprenyl, PhenylPropylAminoPentane (PPAP), Prolintane.

Mild entactogenic empathogenic drugs (helps with socialization): IAP (IndanylAminoPropane), IMAP, (IndanylMethylAminoPropane).

Anti anxiety drugs: Propranolol, 2-methyl-2-butanol, Klonopin, Oxytocin nose spray.
Sleeping pills: Amitriptyline, Melatonin.
Cholinergics: Nicotine vape or gum, Arecoline Hydrobromide (ArcoFuel), Piracetam, Oxyracetam, Nefiracetam, Aniracetam, Phenylpiracetam, Phenylpiracetam Hydrazide. Choline supplements.

PTSD and reducers of traumatic pain associated with bad memories: Propranolol.

BDNF inducers: Exercise, Lion's mane mushrooms, 9-Me-BC, N-Acetyl-Selank, Selank, Semax, Noopept, Possibly Omega 3's.

Other nootropics: B Vitamins, Omega 3's, Magnesium. Fruits and vegetables, L-Carnitine (found in meat and in the supplement store), sulfer rich foods like onions and garlic, and more.
