After alot of research on the hive and interaction with other people who have tried the synth, here is what you need to do if your going to use KMnO4, i found out kmno4 is a bastard of an oxidizer it will destroy your product before you realize it, SO to fix it to work. Here is what you should do dissolve the 7.43g of KMnO4 in 100mL of dh2o. Then use about 10mL for the reaction. Dissolve 10mL of the 100mL KMnO4 with the 250mL of dh2o, also use 25mL of isopropyl alcohol instead of 100mL to end the reaction. I thank matt chemist for this information. Even tho I don't have a mg scale so I cant really do this, unless someone can explain how to add the KMnO4 to the 100ml solution. Once I added a small amount and stired it in the soultion does not seem to settle "1 hour wait time in about 73f room temp" so do I add a small amount and let the water dislove the crystals? mister clean dude this is to you, you suggested this method ; ) ,

Ok here ya go.. i pulled ou tmy scale and some tea spoons and some KMnO4 and found that approx 1 level teaspoon weighs ~7.5g I did this 3 times and came very close to 7.5g each time. So use one teaspoon. You just pour this into the water DO NOT STIR... just pour it in and let it dissolve whatever it wants and let the rest settle. IF you have any other questions feel free to ask.

dude, thanks alot, tis all good now,

Any time man,, glad i could help
