I love your approach of providing multiple questions with different scenarios!! I usually try them on my own and then watch you work through it and make notes. Very helpful!! 🥳
Hey Victor, I hope you're doing well. I wrote my organic chemistry exam yesterday and I could recall everything about this video 😅😅💯 I could hear your voice while writing the paper. You're such a good tutor. Keep it up 👏👏👏
Actually, next one is going to be the nucleophilic aromatic substitution which will wrap up the aromatic chemistry for now. But then yes, the Diels-Alder is a good idea. I was also planning a few videos on the chemistry of aldehydes and ketones.
amazing and really helpful video but I would like to know, in the case of different aromatic compounds, whenever they are reacting with something, in order to determine where the new groups will be placed, do i have to draw the resonance structures and guess the positions using them?
Hi, your explanation is great I have a question: I have a picolinic acid with 2 substituents Cl (O) and CF3 (p). If I attack it with an OH radical, where could the electrophilic substitution occur? Would this happen in the same way in the gas phase?
If you attack it with a *radical*, it's going to (most likely) just grab a proton off the carboxylic acid. Overall, this molecule is incredibly deactivated, so the vast majority of the typical EAS reactions with it will just fail. When it comes to the gas phase chemistry, most of our predictive models go out of window. Gas phase chemistry doesn't follow the same principles as the solution chemistry. You'd have to pay close attention to the bond dissociation energies, the exact conditions, how you did the ionization, etc; and all the solvent effects that we normally have (and often don't even mention in an introductory course as it's beyond the intro ochem's scope) no longer apply.
It's on my to-do list, but as I have very little time to make these videos, the etb of the new ones is up it the air... I still can't find time to finish a video that's been in works for the past 4 months 🤦♂😭
feel lucky that I stumbled upon this channel somehow, awesome video! thankyou
Glad you enjoy it!

Awesome Channel, have an Orgo Final tomorrow and your videos are awesome and are so clear and concise. Great teaching!
Thank you! Best of luck on the test 👍
Thank you. Helpful video. Great channel
Thank you ☺️

Haha, I’m now gonna be haunting you 👻
I’m glad the video helped 👍
Great Video as always, maybe next time Diels - Alder reaction? You are the best teacher!

@@VictortheOrganicChemistryTutor Great! Thats good idea to wrap up aromatic part and then aldehydes & ketones and maybe after it DA reaction :D

As I've mentioned in the video, you could you the shortcuts I give but when in doubt, you could always use the full resonance analysis.

@@VictortheOrganicChemistryTutor Thank you Victor, you are very kind
Any chance of creating alkynes reactions? By the way, your videos are very helpful!!
It's on my to-do list, but as I have very little time to make these videos, the etb of the new ones is up it the air... I still can't find time to finish a video that's been in works for the past 4 months 🤦♂😭
