Professor Dave, I started watching your Chemistry videos as a freshman in high school, and here I am 5 years later watching your Organic Chemistry videos as a sophomore in college. I am blown away by the way you explain complex topics so simply yet comprehensively. I am feeling more confident about medical school now. Great work as always, and may the best things in life find you wherever you choose to go!
I LOVE how you showed the example of the Friedel-Crafts alkylation issue and how Clemmensen reduction can be used to arrive at the solution via a different path, I am always a conceptual learner and making connections like this help so much in understanding!
Hi Professor Dave, I'm curious what happens to the oxygen in the carbonyl group during the Clemmensen reduction as you did not explain that bit here. Thanks.
Dr Dave describes this method here: ua-cam.com/video/SlmfD57TeDk/v-deo.html Also, take a look here for more comparisons: ua-cam.com/video/yJsOrKly3XQ/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/j_OEeWc4QYA/v-deo.html
In the friedel craft reaction if we use Fecl3 instead of alcl3 in the catalyst, there will be no rearrangement and therefore we'll get the desired product.

Ahhh, thanks for reading my comment! 😁
That's great to hear! By the way, how have your classes been going, and did you apply to med school?

This is what my professor wanted to say but you said it in a way that I understood. Well done!
Sir , IAM a huge fan of yours teaching from INDIA
I like the way you explain the Friedel-craft acylation, I was stuck not knowing the difference.
Sir your explanations are crystal clear and i can able to understand it very clearly .. thank you so much for this wonderful lecture.
So basically a Carbonyl remover. Great video as they all seem to be ! ☺
Thank you! This was nowhere in my notes and I have an exam coming up. You just saved me!
How'd your exam go?
God level Explanation
I am fond of your teaching
clear and precise
Sir thank you
For another AWESOME video
You are awesome Dave😄
Thanks for the video 🙏
If it weren't for your jingle I might be able to enjoy your videos
Grit your teeth, it doesn't last long!
To each their own I suppose. I find the jingle makes them even more entertaining!
This is a wonderful video!
Sir it would have been nice if you explained the mechanism. We all can just memorise things. But understanding the concept is important.
As he said, the mechanism is disputed. Not known for sure.
Which is better?Clemmensen & Friedel crafts (or) Wurtz-Fittig
you are holy god sir,, from south korea
Hi Professor Dave, I'm curious what happens to the oxygen in the carbonyl group during the Clemmensen reduction as you did not explain that bit here. Thanks.
the oxygen leaves as zinc oxide
@@ProfessorDaveExplains thank you sir
@@ProfessorDaveExplains Zinc you for letting us know!
Can we get alkylbenzene that is from acylation to wolf kishner reaction ? is it possible

Clemmensen? More like "Cool reaction!" 👍
AWESOME

I hadn't heard that before! Do you know where I could find more information about why there wouldn't be a rearrangement?
@@PunmasterSTP as FeCl3 is weaker Lewis Acid than AlCl3.
@@ranbirdeo8769 Cool; good to know!
Thanks a lot!
Thank you so much 🌻🤩
What happens if there is a free OH group
Thanks sir
Does it work for an Aldehyd as well?
❤ from Physics Wallah student
ur amazing
Let me teach u like u want
how i survive orgo ll lol
Did you take orgo II, and if so, were you able to survive?
Organic Chemistry made simple.... Like Huh Why we have you study all these??😑😑
For organic chemistry class
Please explain the lectures in Arabic
