I bet yours does too.Yes, I also see some colored spot with the naked eye. Where is your product position on TLC plate, is it in the middle of two starting materials or on the top? On the top. My eluent composition was toluene : n-hexane on 1:1 ratio by volume, and the product was the first to elute.
