Vinegar (acetic acid), Morphine and 6-MAM

[GMorris]

After reading the LONG thread about using vinegar to prepare pods, I've become curious about whether one can convert the M to 6-MAM using vinegar. I've got almost a whole bottle of white vinegar, and could evaporate the water out to concentrate some of the acetic acid. I just need to hear from anyone who knows a bit about chemistry. Like, would this even work with pharmaceutical M? If so, how would one go about it? How much vinegar/acetic acid to use for 30mg M, how long does it take? Is it an instant conversion or should it "react" for some amount of time, etc.? That is, if it would even work.

I just happen to like the taste of vinegar, though I wouldn't just sit and drink big gulps of it. The other day, I peeled and sliced two good sized cucumbers and put them in vinegar to soak. It's one of my favorite snacks, once the cukes have had time to absorb some of the vinegar that is. Seems to be fairly healthy too. So, I got up yesterday morning and decided to just swallow two of the IR 30's. Immediately after, I started eating a few of the vinegar-soaked cuke slices. I swear, within about 6 - 7 minutes I was feeling it like I'd done a shot almost! At this point I can't say if the vinegar made the difference, but usually it takes 30 - 40 minutes before I'm feeling it when eating the pills. I also noticed that, although the feeling was intense and I was "slammed" from eating 60mg, it didn't seem to last nearly as long. Anyone think that the vinegar made any difference, or am I suffering from a placebo effect? In any case, I KNOW that I wasn't imagining the feeling, I was just damned surprised that it hit me so fast and strong.
