Test E Powder turned brown

It will recrystallize fine without 'stripping' the enanthate ester. Lots of different ways to do it.

How about explaining it to dude (and now myself) since you wasted 2 posts already where you could have easily helped him out....

How about dissolving the test in methanol and then adding distilled water drop-wise until crystals form?

That could work. It will need to be done at a low temperature, and you'll want to be able to do a vacuum filtration to recover the crystals.

Methanol will saponify the enanthate ester.... leaving you with test base

 

[QiangDa]

Methanol can't saponify an ester. Its not a strong enough base (or acid for that matter)

Yes, u are right. And I am wrong.

I am too used to doing synovex conversions..

NaOH is what saponifies the ester during the conversion.

Apologies

Ahh synovex conversions! Hehe that takes me back a few years...
