In this video we will be making some Skatole, the essence of poop. It has been a long journey here and I am glad I have arrived. My garage smelled like a dirty horse stable for a week after trying to recrystallize it.

It has taken many months, but I was finally able to make a decent aerogel!

In this video we will be growing some tin crystals using a stannous chloride solution and some electrolysis.
Music by Kevin Macleod. I forgot the song though...
Stannous chloride: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zziLOly2R8U
EDIT: It was pointed out by KotMatvej that the solution doesn't actually boil, but it is electrolytic sides reactions which are producing gas. These are the two side reactions that he suggested:
2Cl- -- 2e = Cl2
2H2O - 4e = 4H+ + O2

Hello all! Today we will be making phosphorus tribromide (PBr3) from red phosphorus and bromine (made in a previous video). I am hoping to release a "wet" chemistry video every Saturday, and a "dry," more theory based chem video maybe on Tuesdays. Let me know what you guys think.
Next Saturday video is: lidocaine extraction from anal lubricant.
The synthesis procedure was taken from here: http://woelen.homescience.net/science/chem/exps/PBr3_synth/index.html

In this video we make some ammonium formate from ammonium carbonate and formic acid. It was supposed to be used to convert vanillin to vanillin amine, but there was a problem with the synthesis and it doesn't seem to work. The vanillin amine is a precursor to things like capsaicin and other spicy compounds.
I still thought the video might be interesting though, so I am posting it anyway. Let me know if you have any other cool ways to use ammonium formate

What I have here is some mercury, with a bit of sodium metal dissolved into it, and I'm gonna do something really weird with it.

Today I'll be making some margarine from olive oil, however, it is going to be terrible and inedible. It is all about the journey though...right?
To make it, I'll be hydrogenating olive oil. Margarine is normally partially hydrogenated, but I am going to fully hydrogenate things. So, it's going to actually be closer to "shortening".

Thioacetone is something that I've been wanting to make for a while, and now, I finally get to experience its horror. Will it be as horrendously stinky as it is claimed to be? Will it make me pass out and vomit?
