Fun fact: This is explained in Breaking Bad. ... not the chemical breakdown (IIRC, so thanks for that!) but the difference in production.
Wonder if it made any impact on the popularity or still just tighter controls on ephedrine.
Just tighter controls on ephedrine and pseudoephedrine. Any dumbass can make it in the bathroom easily with homemade lab equipment using ephedrine, so a lot of law and law enforcement crackdowns have centered on that.
I haven’t seen the show in a long time and never finished it, but from what I remember, later in the show they ditch both methods and move on to methylamine. Going that route would also allow production of isolated d-methamphetamine.
