So this might be more semantic than scientific but I wanted your guys thoughts on the matter,So hypothetically, if we did find life from another world, life evolved from a completely independent source than ours, and even if it was animate, easily recognizable life, maybe even humanoid...It still couldn't technically be an animal or any of our kingdoms/domains of life, right? Like, when we're talking about the various domains and kingdoms of life, it's kind of implied those can only be terrestrial in origin since we're talking about a tree of life with a common ancestry right? Like if we got an Earth fungus to grow on another planet and it evolved into a new species of fungus to better live on that world, it would still be a fungus because it's ancestors were Earth fungi. But if a life form from somewhere in space from a completely different line of evolution were to travel to earth, even if it coincidentally shared a lot of similar traits to Earth fungi due to functional convergent evolution, it still could never be considered kingdom: fungi right?tlIf do we sort alien life forms by phenotype traits or genotype ones? >> Henry Brobberbitch - Fri, 02 Sep 2016 19:36:46 EST bvtI5MJW No.78210 Reply i suspect that if and when we discover extraterrestrial life, biologists and zoologists will agree to classify every evolutionary ancestral lineage independently. maybe add a celestial identity marker, e.g. Terra Homo Sapiens Sapiens

Estimating the relative potency of a fentanyl analogue View Thread Reply Hide Augustus Sarringberk - Mon, 15 Aug 2016 12:02:06 EST Y1ptdQKh No.78154 File: 1471276926041.png -(13693B / 13.37KB, 554x376) Thumbnail displayed, click image for full size. Dearest /chem/, I wish I were one of you, but I'm not. My knowledge of chemistry trivia might impress at some parties but when actual questions arise, assistance is necessary. I was hoping you could help me estimate the relative potency of cyclopentyl-fentanyl, a novel fentanyl analogue. You will find It's structure displayed in the picture. My thoughts: Cyclopentyl-F seems to be structurally related to Acryl-F. The latter is said to be active at doses <10 mcg. But on the other hand, cyclopentyl-F also seems related to Acetyl-F which is said to only be 1/20th the potency of regular fentanyl.

Recently in the CWE thread someone was asking for book recommendations on chemistry textbooks, and the rest, and Press uploaded a couple of image-rars. I've been thinking we could benefit from our own central thread where we can discuss our collections, what we're reading, with an organic chemistry/synthesis theme. I know they have a good recommendation list at the /sci/ wiki over on 4chan, but fuck 4chan. This is /chem/ and we are a proud people. Also, we have a smaller community centered more around org-chem and synthesis, so it's a niche this thread should fill with more in-depth recommendations on the subject, and the provision of papers and other supplemental material. To anyone looking for books, I'd recommend libgen. I only recently discovered it and I'm quite frankly relieved at not having to scour torrent sites and the awkward interface of #bookz for hours on end only to discover a rare book I'm looking for isn't being seeded. I recently got Alan F Casy's Opioid Analgesics: Chemistry and Receptors off it, which I'd actually considering buying for about 50 euro used half a year ago. What a travesty that would have been. So far I've only checked out the chapter on 4-phenylpiperidines, but so far it's an interesting read. I used to have a better collection on my old computer but it crapped out, and here's what I'm working with at the moment while I rebuild it. I'm an undergrad, so I assume some of the more seasoned veterans here will have comprehensive collections. 14 posts and 4 images omitted.

Trying 3-4 different demethylation strategies under mild conditions, it seems that pyridinium HX is going to the be easiest and most non-retarded way of demethylating any species.Any other format either seems to cleave the ether bridge, require too much heat, or is simply impractically tender.So I wonder - does anyone have any resources on a better yielding demethylation of aromatic methoxides with pyridinium salts? Can anyone find any literature that says PyHBr would be more selective and cleaner than PyHCl with a 15% yield in demethylation of "certain" compounds?

Hello guys I've been trying to reduce the P2NP (phenyl-2-nitropropene) to the amine form (amphetamine)I tried the amalgam procedure described in erowid but this doesn't reduce the double bond (despite the rodium's archives where some people tried this and said it worked I was suspicious and tried it anyway but it doesn't give a single thing) with the "Reduction of unsubstituted P2NP by HyperLab Bee #2." What would be a good method? LiAlH4 is expensive and difficult to handle, same with palladium or platinum compoundsI was thinking on NaBH4 to reduce the double bond and then Zn/HCl for the nitro group but I'm not surethanks a lot 11 posts and 3 images omitted.

Okay so i dissolved 1 gram of 2 fa 2 fluroamphwtamine in 30ml of watwr. Ny question is if I let 15ml of it evaporate will i be left with some crystal 2fa? 1 posts omitted.
