No way would your average individual be able to achieve this. But the program suggested it was easy.
Thanks for that Kes, made me quite nostalgic for the lab! Over forty years ago I got a PhD in organic chemistry but I'm not sure I'd want to attempt any of that at home. This bit from one of the linked documents made me laugh:

Gas began to come out of the dispersion tube, which I immersed in the toluene filtrate. Absolutely nothing had happened after several minutes and I was convinced I had totally f---ed up. Then a wisp here and there of white material started to appear, and within 30 seconds there were giant clouds of puffy MDMA HCl cascading out of solution. I nearly s--- my pants.

I noticed that he was not quite on the ball at one stage, I put it down to technical problems with the microphone or something, but you may be right!
