Dear Sir or Madam,
I have PhD in chemistry. I was running R&D lab in household chemistry and cosmetics for over a year. Later I was working as team leader in medicinal chemistry lab.
Currently I work as freelancer providing articles, reviews and know-how from the fields like biology, chemistry and medicine.
I have 8 years of experience at University, 3 years in private R&D labs followed by 5 years of freelancing as a consultant.
I can assess:
Safety
Toxicity
Yield
Maybe compatibility with liquid crystals
Rough estimate of materials required for the synthesis
Synthetic costs and waste management will depend on the scale of the production, therefore they cannot be assessed.
Answering your secret question, I'd say you made a mistake, it should be NO not CO.
Kind Regards
Chris
