ring formations are scary, but this video made it seem easy. sometimes it’s hard for me to remember that pi electrons are great nucleophiles!
Ayyyy! Excellent takeaway! I’ve got some doozies coming up for ring closing mechanisms!
This video just showed up in my feed. I always found thinking about mechanisms of reactions the best way to learn organic chemistry, when studying for exams I would always
draw tons of mechanism for hours on end, it was always a lot of fun. Thank you for the great video, excited for the next mechanism!
Aw, yay! I’m so glad that it popped into your feed randomly! I agree that your plan was an excellent way to master organic. I bet your old notebooks are full of cool mechanism! Please let me know if you’ve got any cool ideas for one of these videos in the future!
Love this! I'll see you every Monday until I finish my 2nd year in Chemistry.
My hope is that you’ll fall in love with chemistry and stick around forever!
gracias por este tipo de contenido, te veo desde méxico🙏
ayyyy! ¡Soy venezolano! ¡Gracias por visitar mi canal!
@@rojaslabque genial!
No sabía que eras hispanohablante, saludos desde Uruguay, muchas fuerzas al pueblo venezolano.
This video popped up in my feed, and you’ve added another subscriber! I’ve not done mechanisms in a WHILE; but I noticed and error at 1:13, you’ve drawn a C with 10 valence electrons. Regardless, AWESOME video and I can’t wait to watch more!
Thank you so much!! I’m glad I randomly popped into your world and I’m glad that you’re here!
I can't seem to o find the C with 10 valence electrons that you are referring to, would you mind telling me where it is?
Thanks in advance.
@@felipe-n9t I also could not find it...
Awesome idea! For next week, I predict halonium formation followed by nucleophilic ring opening with water, capped by a proton transfer!
Great call! Stay tuned…
bro, your videos are amazing : )
You’re amazing! Thank you 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thank you
No, thank you!!
That was really cool! Is there a particular name for this specific transformation?
I don’t think this one does classify as a named reaction, but if you stick around I think in the next few weeks of Mechanism Monday, we’ll have a few named reaction examples!
@@rojaslab Ah, thanks for letting me know!
Why isn’t an oxygen added on like it is in acid catalyzed hydration of alkenes? Is it just because of the presence of the benzene ring?
Awesome question! The styrene carbocation is stabilized by the fact that you can draw 4 other resonance structures by moving around the conjugated pi bonds from the phenyl ring adjacent to the now empty p orbital, which is where the cation resides. This stability makes it less reactive than hydration/addition mechanisms taught in 2nd year organic chemistry. Excellent question and I hope this explanation helps!
@@rojaslab I see, thank you!!
nice
What is it called, is it possible to eat it?
True story, a friend in my lab used to take a small sample of every chemical he made and taste it. Not illegal, but definitely frowned upon!
