      That's a good idea since I am sure the whole monetization on RUclips doesn't bring in much profit with all this fantastic content getting flagged all the time. Than again I still have hope for RUclips some where down the line. It would be really hard for new people to discover these videos if it were on a more obscure site. Lets face it, we have to accept that at the moment, RUclips still is the best platform for discovery. They just keep going down hill and I don't think it will always be that way. Unless RUclips steps up and changes something.

    Now imagine how much fun I'm currently having doing air and water-sensitive reactions with alkylplatinum compounds, on the 20-50 mg scale...
    (well, at least I do have access to specialized glassware and lab equipment for this sort of reaction. But it can get very frustrating very quickly!)

    • @elnombre91
      @elnombre91 5 лет назад +2

      I feel your pain. Every single complex (apart from 1 rhodium complex) I made during my PhD was highly sensitive. Gloveboxes ftw.
      Having to use 20-50 mg of ligand at a time due to a difficult, lengthy synthesis is always a pleasure...

    Why did RUclips flag this?

    • @NurdRage

      maybe because its chemistry. RUclips tends to flag a lot of my chemistry videos.

  • @csalad992
    @csalad992 7 лет назад

    Maybe for the smaller scale version of this reaction could be useful to use a stronger and dehydrating electrophile such as propionyl chloride or propionic anhydride.. But one of the drawbacks on this way of thinking is that you should deprotonate and isolate the acetonitrile in a separate step before the Nu attack . Howerver your work has been great thank you very much for this kind of chemistry that i love

    • @christianvn1

      ashutosh sharma Nitriles are very resistant to hydrolysis, so brief contact with room temperature acid shouldn't hydrolize them too much.

    • @katiefrisk980
      @katiefrisk980 3 года назад

      in intro level organic chemistry classes you are generally taught to use the same alcohol for the base as the group on the ester, as to avoid transesterification (the alkoxide group displaces the starting alkoxy on the ester, resulting in a mixture of products). in this case though the final product doesn’t have an ester group, so it doesn’t matter in the end.

  • @mmmhorsesteaks
    @mmmhorsesteaks 7 лет назад +1

    Why is the multiplet so weird? I'd expect a simple quadruplet but it looks more like a doublet of quadruplets? Is it something to do with the carbonyl next to the nitrile; partially tautomerizing to the enol on nmr time scales?

    • @NurdRage
      @NurdRage  7 лет назад

      they're diastereotropic.

  • @xandervarga7218
    @xandervarga7218 7 лет назад +1

    why did the sodium methoxide not deprotonate to do an aldol reaction or something? are the nitrile/chlorophenyl groups more electron withdrawing than the ester? or did it happen and is just an impurity? if so why is it not significant?

    • @NurdRage
      @NurdRage  7 лет назад +1

      it probably is. But the impurities are washed out during the washing step. so you see very little of them.

    Do you know why it got flagged or was it without reason? If it was, maybe we should think of setting up some sort of petition as that can't possibly be intentional.

    • @goodfeller2
      @goodfeller2 7 лет назад +2

      Mit1mit2mity4 It's because RUclips automatically flags videos it deems "inappropriate" or "not advertiser friendly" What ever that means. The thing is there are no concrete rules. And to add insult to injury the RUclips algorithms take down the video without any human intervention. Which is to say no one actually watches the video to see if it's legitmate, or in other words they don't care. It really is a sad state of affairs and it needs to fixed.

    • @muizzy
      @muizzy 7 лет назад +1

      Thing is that more often than not, it works well. And though youtube sometimes flags the wrong content, they're also a big fan of science videos so they surely want to help. As would the green brothers who have enough pull and contacts to start looking for a fix.
      But this is all assuming that it's a mistake, which may not always be the case, as youtube may look to flag videos that show the step by step synthesis of (highly) dangerous compounds.

  • @heldercoltura8420

    Doesn't the methoxide attacking the carbonyl in ethyl propionate cause a big loss of yield ?

    • @jeremymcadams7743
      @jeremymcadams7743 3 года назад

      Not really. Transesterification is probably a main side reaction, but it leaves the ester functionally intact for the nucleophilic attack

    • @NurdRage
      @NurdRage  7 лет назад +17

      not exactly. it's too complicated for anyone to make themselves, even if it could be made for free. I did this more as a challenge, to show that amateurs, if properly mobilized, can fight corporations should the need arise. I'm just one guy that managed to do this. Imagine if half a dozen people smarter than me got to work on it. It'd be blatantly illegal of course. but if the choice for a sick person is this and death, one must consider their options.
