What's the more straightforward easy way to make phentermine?

I'd say dehydrating the alcohol is probably easier than dehydrogenating the cyclohexane ring

>dehydrogenating the cyclohexane
isn't it just heating it on a platinum catalyst

>>16713886 (OP)
just buy meth on the street, anon

Ephedrine:

Dehydrate the alcohol with H2SO4 and high temp
Then add HBr
Then add a Grignards reagent with the methyl .
Simplest imo

phentermine not meth

What if I use it on ephedra plant extract, will it also react with ephedrine isomers the same way to make the same final product?
