1:Example 1 General Procedure for the Reaction of the Excipient of Formulas I and II and Pseudoephedrine with Lithium in Liquid Ammonia

General procedure: Example 1 General Procedure for the Reaction of the Excipient of Formulas I and II and Pseudoephedrine with Lithium in Liquid Ammonia (0044) Lithium metal pieces (35 mg, 5.0 mmol) were carefully added to liquid ammonia (5-10 mL) at about −78° C. (dry ice, isopropyl alcohol). A dark blue solution began to form within a few seconds. The dark blue solution was stirred at −78° C. for about 3 to 5 minutes. Thereafter, a mixture of the excipient of Formula I (122-166 mg, 1.0 mmol) and pseudoephedrine (165 mg, 1.0 mmol) in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (3 mL) was added to the dark blue solution. The entire reaction mixture was stirred while the temperature of the reaction was slowly raised to about −20° C. Stirring was continued at this temperature for about 1 hour. The reaction mixture was quenched with saturated ammonium chloride (2 mL) and water (3 mL), and diluted with methanol (5 mL). The reaction mixture was analyzed and quantified for the presence of methamphetamine. The results are given in Example 3 below. 1%

(R)-N-Methyl-1-phenylpropan-2-amine 11

General procedure: To a stirred solution of N-Boc protected amino alcohol 9 (0.5mg, 1.98mmol) in CH2Cl2 (5mL) were added dry triethylamine (0.3mL, 2.37mmol) and p-toluenesulfonyl chloride (0.452g, 2.37mmol) in the presence of a catalytic amount of 4-dimethylaminopyridine (0.024g,10molpercent) at 0°C. The reaction mixture was stirred at 25°C for 3h and then quenched by addition of 10percent NaHCO3. The aqueous layer was extracted with CH2Cl2 (3×20mL) and the combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, and concentrated to give the crude tosylate, which was then dissolved in dry THF (5mL), and added dropwise to a suspension of LiAlH4 (0.225g, 3mmol) in dry THF (10mL). The mixture was refluxed for 4h and then cooled to 0°C after which the excess LiAlH4 was quenched by the addition of EtOAc. It was then treated with aq. 20percent NaOH (0.5mL). The white precipitate which formed was filtered off, and the residue was washed with EtOAc (3×10mL). The combined EtOAc layers were dried over anhydrous Na2SO4, and the solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure. The crude product was purified by column chromatography over silica gel using CHCl3 as the eluent to afford the corresponding pure N-methyl amine 11.

Preparation of d-N-methylamphetamine (9) from 8

Preparation of d-N-methylamphetamine (9) from 8 A 50 mL, 3-necked round bottomed flask was charged with 8 (0.5 g, 1.75 mmol) and 3 M HCl (25 mL) and the stirred reaction mixture was heated to 80° C. for 2.5 hours and then cooled to room temperature.


The orange solution was extracted with isopropyl acetate (25 mL) and the organic extract layer was discarded. Sodium hydroxide solution (50percent solution, 10 mL) was slowly added to the remaining aqueous layer, keeping the internal temperature below 25° C. Methyl tert-butyl ether (20 mL) was added and the reaction mixture was agitated for 20 minutes then allowed to separate for 30 minutes. The aqueous layer was removed and the organic layer washed with water (10 mL), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure to give a light brown oil. This oil was distilled (bulb-to-bulb at 65-67° C. 0.6 mm Hg vacuum) to afford 9 as a colorless oil (0.19 g, 75percent yield). This distillate was converted to the known HCl salt for analysis, mp 172-175° C. Optical rotation c=1.00, water, 25.2° C., +16.3°. A

1:

In a controlled laboratory setting, 12 microliters of the commercial product marketed AS"KEYACIDTM Rhodamine WT"and manufactured by Keystone Analine Corporation of Chicago, Illinois, which is a 21.2percent w/w solution of rhodamine WT in water, and 300 ML of anhydrous ammonia were combined in a flask. This is approximately equivalent to 2 oz OF KEYACID Rhodamine WT in one ton of liquid anhydrous ammonia. The mixture was stirred until a solution formed that had a very slight yellow tint. The solvation of rhodamine WT in ammonia transformed the rhodamine WT into a nearly colorless composition. The surface of each piece of equipment used in this process, however, was visibly stained a light pink in areas exposed to the ammonia and from which the ammonia had evaporated. The solution was also purposefully put in contact with various additional equipment and materials, including metal screwdriver heads, concrete, and paper. All exposed equipment and materials were visibly stained pink upon evaporation of the anhydrous ammonia. During the mixing process, some of the mixture unintentionally contacted items, including protective gloves and the hands of the researchers who were performing the mixing. These additional items were also visibly stained pink. [0071] The solution of dye in ammonia was added to 2 grams of pure pharmaceutical grade ephedrine in a 500 mL beaker. The contents of the flask were stirred to dissolve the ephedrine. Any material that came into contact with this solution, including the flask when the flask was emptied, was also visibly stained pink upon evaporation of the ammonia solvent. The visible pink stain on the flask was transferred to a sponge when the flask was washed. [0072] Lithium metal was added to the ephedrine solution. This mixture was heated to carry out a so-called"Birch"reaction. During the Birch reaction, materials contacted by the mixture were not stained. It is believed that the lack of a stain at this stage may be due to a reduction of the rhodamine WT to a colorless composition. [0073] Evaporation of the ammonia from the Birch reaction mixture left a free base form of methamphetamine. In order to purify it, the free base methamphetamine was dissolved into a liquid ether and converted to the hydrochloride salt by bubbling hydrogen chloride gas through the solution. The methamphetamine salt precipitated from solution. During this process plastic tubes used to carry the hydrogen chloride gas into the dissolved methamphetamine were visibly stained pink as was the beaker. [0074] The methamphetamine salt product was filtered through a coffee filter to retain the methamphetamine. The coffee filter used for this filtration along with the resultant product is shown in the picture of FIG. 3. Two things were observed. First, the coffee filter and resulting product are both stained pink. Further, the filtration does not occur easily because instead of a rapidly-drying, clear crystal being formed, the product was a pink sludge, which was difficult to filter and dry. This pink sludge (methamphetamine) visibly stained objects with which it came into contact pink, including plastic storage bags. A
