I heated
galinstan and aluminum and stirred to make aluminum galinstan.
I reduced phenyl-2-butanone (or P-2-Bu), and ammonia in ethanol solution using aluminum galinstan and then filtered to make phenylisobutylamine, and dried it with
anhydrous magnesium sulfate. Then reacted the phenylisobutylamine ethanol solution with hydrogen chloride gas to make phenylisobutylamine
HCl. The liquid galinstan was recoverable and reusable.
