I designed and synthesized PAC-832 in a chemistry lab I built in my garage (twitter.com)

I know too litle biology to be sure this make sense, but I've seen too many crackpots in math and phisics recently...

I studied somechemistry. The photo of the lab is interesting. It looks real (not AI generated). It has a few vertical condensers and separatory funnel. The vertical conections make sense, but the whole setup makes no sense, like a display of cool equipment. My question is: Why one of the condensers is green?!?!

> the development of PAC-832 was catalyzed by various modern technologies, most notably liquid-handling robotics

Is there a photo of the robot? The photo only shows 1990 equipment.
