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. Any ideas for "dry" videos? I am starting a purely theoretical series on the chemistry behind the synthesis of illicit/non-illicit drugs, but I would like to get more smaller ideas.
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
