I very much enjoy making Fe(VI) compounds, too. Also the V and IV ones. Very occasionally. Mainly I stick to VI.

once they work you know where the problems are
Well, of course. Once they work, they don't have problems.
Well, sort of. Almost. Except for the ones they still do have.

At least programs don't have to have experiments written up afterwards
Ah. But three is the lovely documentation. Which is what I'm doing now. When I can whip myself hard enough to make me do it. Which obviously isn't happening at this moment.

Phosgene's easiest by heating Cl2 gas over carbon black in limited oxygen, or with CO gas.
I'll remember that next time I need to synthesize a war gas. Never know when that might come in handy.

My favourite quick experiment was making Fe(VI) compounds.
Tell me more. This sounds like fun. My chemistry instructors were prigs and frowned on such things.

I think we need to change the thread name to "Chem Lab".

there are still two unidentified sub-uranics
Let see, technitium and ??? (Can't remember that other one.)

I've never seen element 86 called Niton before
Cudda sworn that was radon. Oh well. Got it wrong.

I think we're boring E.
