Crystals
by movies on Aug 16 2006 (612 Views)You ever have one of those days where you do something in lab that’s totally routine, but then you encounter something that just makes you happy to be a chemist? I had one of those today. Most of the compounds I deal with are oils or liquids, but today I made a compound that crystallized after concentrating the organic layer after the reaction. Nice white crystals with no purification at all. That freakin’ rules.
I kinda want to try to sublime it now, because sublimation is easily the best part of chemistry.
