Organic Chemistry Synthesis Possibilities Discussion

Click For Summary
The discussion centers on the conditions necessary for a reaction in organic chemistry synthesis, emphasizing that no reaction occurs under the current conditions. Participants suggest that oxidation of the amine to either an amide or imine might be required to facilitate a reaction. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding specific conditions for successful synthesis. Overall, the focus is on identifying the necessary steps to achieve a reaction in organic chemistry.

TL;DR
I was confused on whether the product would be A or B . I think it should be B because it seems more stable than A and even by reaction mechanism logic , B seems to be more likely because the H+ will be a electrophile and attach to N which has a lone pair and form NH2+ and break off the CH3 bond and form CH3+ which goes to OH- and forms methyl alcohol but i wanted to confirm just in case , i am still in high school learning a bit on my own of advanced

What would be the conditions required ?

Not sure. You would probably have to oxidize the amine (either to amide or imine) and find a way to work from there.

Thread 'Flash Joule Heating (FJH) Method for treating process waste streams'

I caught the tail end of a video about a new application for treating chemical or process waste, which is applied to 'red' mud or contaminated bauxite residue, but the person of interest mention recovering critical minerals from consumer electronics, as well as treating mine tailings and processing ores of rare earth elements. What I found so far is the following: New electrical flash method rapidly purifies red mud into strong ceramics, aluminum feedstock...
