OMG Leah, you're so amazing!!! I can't even tell you how much this helped me. I was just trying to memorize all that i learned but you helped me understand it through A GREATER depth. I truly appreciate the help!!!!!
Thank you for subscribing! I'm so glad I could help you make sense of the entire chapter, and hopefully all the other difficult concepts in organic chemistry
I found your channel only few days before my exam and I felt I was going to be doomed before but I’m saved by your VDOs! Thank you for all these wonderful works. Your teaching really helped me put everything in one piece and make them easier to memorize. My only regret is that I should have found your channel sooner ; - ; will surely recommend your channel to my junior. Thank you so much!
Hi Leah! I'm a Chemistry tutor in Singapore and have just started out on creating Chemistry videos on my Channel to share with my students. I find your Organic Chemistry videos really useful and I have featured your Channel on mine. Hopefully you are cool with that! I'm really inspired by UA-cam educators like you who have reached out and helped so many chemistry students in the world! Please continue to create more videos. Will look forward to them. Cheers! Best regards, Maverick
I like to think of R as the "REST" of the molecule. It represents a variable group, other than the part of the molecule we are focusing on, at the moment.
Hi Leah! I'm confused about what you mean about making something more reactive (9:07) the less reactive group will get us there. Wouldn't it be the Amide reacting to make an ester or anhydride? Since the Amide is the less reactive out of them all. Thank you!
Hey Leah, can you do more videos on this topic and similar ones such as Base-Promoted / Acid-Catalyzed Ester Hydrolysis / Fischer Estification and so on? Or maybe a live session? Feels like I have spotted a gap in your huge book of content! Thank you!
Correct. You would have to follow this specific reaction with heat in order to get the amide. For more detailed help with this reaction and others, I recommend joining the organic chemistry study hall. Details: leah4sci.com/join or contact me through my website leah4sci.com/contact/
Hello, to go from an acid halide to an anhydride can't you use a regular carboxylic acid to attack the carbonyl and have it be deprotonated by water or something else? Or do you need to use a deprotonated carboxylic acid instead?

aldehydes aren’t a carboxylic acid derivative, because hydrogen isn’t a particularly great leaving group. carboxylic acids generally have good leaving groups on their alpha carbons (the carbon next to carbonyl carbon). aldehydes are a carbonyl however, just not a carboxylic derivative.
Perhaps I missed something, but are soaps a part of the carboxylic acids or derivates? I have them together as a subject in my Org.Chem class. Thanks for the great videos!! Your explanations are very helpful and give me some hope for passing this course! (P.S. I met with a tutor and showed them your flip rule for enantiomers and the aromaticity "monster" and he thought they were great!)
Hi, you are really a good teacher. Mind if I ask for a video about "Heterocyclic compound". 😭😭😭 I find it hard for the naming and whatsoever. Trivial name, IUPAC, systemic nomenclature. Which one?. 😭😭😭
Thank you for your kind words! It doesn't hurt to ask ;) The free videos are what I do as I have time for them. In the mean time, I recommend joining the organic chemistry study hall. full details: leah4sci.com/join

I'm so glad! Make sure to start and end study time with this: leah4sci.com/memorize to take your memorization to the level of understanding!
With classes moving online these videos are saving me!
Glad to hear that!
No doubt great explanation
So so good this woman literally just explained a whole chapter in less than 10 minutes genius and I am subscribing

Oh wow, glad to know you're no longer doomed! Thanks for recommending me to others; that's the highest compliment I can receive!
Wow... You made 2 chapters of Orgo understandable in 10 minutes. This was so helpful! Thank you so much!
Glad the video helped! You're welcome! All the best!
My God...Leah you teaches SO GOOD ! ! ! You just saved my exam yet again... I deeply appreciate your tutorials ! ! !
Thank you so much! Always glad to help!

What R represents here?
I like to think of R as the "REST" of the molecule. It represents a variable group, other than the part of the molecule we are focusing on, at the moment.

Oh wow I misspoke, the MORE reactive group will react to give you the less reactive derivative. I had it backwards, thanks for pointing this out
@@Leah4sci Thank you so much for getting back to me and thank you for clarifying!
OMG thank you so much, widh I would've found this sooner. Love the reaction map!!!!
You're welcome! Glad the video helped!
A big and a heartful thanks to your videos and your organic cheat sheets ..it is helping me a lot in my studies ..
Love from INDIA ❤️
You're so welcome!
your videos are just great.Thank you for helping A levels students
You're very welcome
you are truly saving my life in ochem right now! thank you

Aww thanks!
this is soo great! thank you so much!
You're so welcome!
Awesome mam, you are teaching me just like my elder sis.......
Glad to help!
Thanks for this video, i needed this
You're welcome! Glad the video helped :)
Hey Leah, can you do more videos on this topic and similar ones such as Base-Promoted / Acid-Catalyzed Ester Hydrolysis / Fischer Estification and so on? Or maybe a live session? Feels like I have spotted a gap in your huge book of content! Thank you!
I'm about to post a poll for Monday's live. Be sure to vote for the Carboxylic Acid derivatives session
@@Leah4sciThanks so much Leah - not only have your videos carried me through, but you always respond to my comments. The GOAT!!!
Insanely helpful! ❤
So glad to hear it!
Thanks this was very helpful !!
Glad it was helpful!
Makes it easy to understand. 👍👍👍
Glad you liked it!
incredible. thank u sm
You're very welcome!
Leah if you react ammonia with the carboxylic acid, won’t it protonate the ammonia which makes a non-nucleophilic ammonium ion?
Correct. You would have to follow this specific reaction with heat in order to get the amide. For more detailed help with this reaction and others, I recommend joining the organic chemistry study hall. Details: leah4sci.com/join or contact me through my website leah4sci.com/contact/
Excellent 👌 explanation
Thank you 🙂
@@Leah4sci u always welcome mam
Hello, to go from an acid halide to an anhydride can't you use a regular carboxylic acid to attack the carbonyl and have it be deprotonated by water or something else? Or do you need to use a deprotonated carboxylic acid instead?
HCl is a strong acid and will react with and destroy the anhydride
I love the diagram!
Thanks so much!
Thank you for doing this 💙
You're welcome
mam what's your qualifications and where you teach ? you teach better for my professor thank you.
My qualifications are that I like to teach. And since you like the way I teach, is that not enough?
thank you mam
I also completed a dual degree in biology and chemistry, and a minor in health and nutrition
Where we will apply these?
In organic synthesis questions, for one.
Cn u uplaod about reactions of carboxylic acids?

Why is there no mention of aldehydes? Are they not a derivative?
aldehydes aren’t a carboxylic acid derivative, because hydrogen isn’t a particularly great leaving group. carboxylic acids generally have good leaving groups on their alpha carbons (the carbon next to carbonyl carbon). aldehydes are a carbonyl however, just not a carboxylic derivative.
Aldehydes have a H next to the carbonyl which is not a good leaving group nor easily formed from a carboxylic acid
Perhaps I missed something, but are soaps a part of the carboxylic acids or derivates? I have them together as a subject in my Org.Chem class.

I love you Leah❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks!
brilliant!!!!
Thank you
Thank you
You're very welcome
Where do aldehydes fall in reactivity?
Aldehydes are not derivatives of carboxylic acids though a carboxyl can be partially reduced TO an aldehyde
Can I get transesterification reaction explain by you...!?
I hope to do a video on that soon
Just an Alevel student but this was so straightforward and easy to grasp
Glad you like it!
Well your sound is pretty familiar..is that Raegsn brogdon
No, it's Leah :)

Thanks for watching!
Super mam
Glad you like it!
Well explain
Thanks
please mam make videos on quntum chemistry
I already have a quantum numbers video. Did you see it yet?
Leah4sci mam videos like schrodinger equqtion, uncertainty principal black body radiation, dual nature of light and so on .
That's more advanced than what I currently plan to teach
Leah4sci thank you so much mam
I LOVE YOU
Aww shucks
