I have an orgo midterm on Monday and I truly appreciate you creating this video. It honestly helped me and I hope you continue to do more videos in the future!
i have my orgo II midterm on tuesday and im so nervous because i suck at the reactions/mechanisms/products all that and this is the literally 328419th video i'm watching nothing seems to help me but the way you are teaching lifts me up somehow so thanks man. i'll update on how my midterm went lol
time stamp 17:58, problem 2, how would i know to label my carbons to the left instead of the right? when i did the problem, your #6 was my #3, so the ketones were right next to each other, and that would be a totally different molecule right? alsooo, why doesnt the carbon at the top of the methyl group of 4 count as one? i originally drew my chain to have 7 carbons. thank you!!
Hey! loved the video, great information and honestly this is one of the few videos online that GENUIENLY made me think... However I believe the very last question you forgot to invert the OH... itself and the Deuterium are both on wedges, the OH should be on a dash. my thought process is OH is strong nuc strong base producing SN2, and therefore inversion of stereochemistry. Please correct me if im wrong because I have an exam this week 🤣
why isn't there enantiomeric products produced for the first problem that involves oxymercuration-demercuration?? I thought there would be because its a stereo center?
Hey Melanie, That problem needs an update, but my original intent when I wrote it was for regiochemistry only. In terms of stereochemistry though, you are 100% correct--you would have a 50%/50% split of wedge and dash at that position when adding the -OH.
I got an 82% on the exam🙌🙌....the class average was a 61% 😭so thank you
AMAZING JOB, CONGRATS ON THE GREAT GRADE! You earned that grade :) thank you for watching and for the kind words!
plz teach me i still don't get it ahhhhhhh
Please do another video like this !!! It’s extremely helpful 😢
I just finally understood two little things that I didn't connect before. Made this so much more logical, thank you!!
I have watched many good Org. Chem videos. In my opinion, you are on the top of the list
I can watch you all day teaching chemistry❤

Nice video. Thank you
thank you so much for this! i'm using it to make notes before my second to last orgo exam right now
you deserve way more subs

and this time i can actually do the questions on my own.. wow
watching this before my exam tomorrow 🤞🏼😭
How was it
@@AshleyDike good! i got an 82!
time stamp 17:58, problem 2, how would i know to label my carbons to the left instead of the right? when i did the problem, your #6 was my #3, so the ketones were right next to each other, and that would be a totally different molecule right? alsooo, why doesnt the carbon at the top of the methyl group of 4 count as one? i originally drew my chain to have 7 carbons. thank you!!
ohh is it because we want our groups to have the lowest number
great video
Great review!

I would’ve gotten such a higher grade if I’d found your vids earlier
u da goat
