My professor NEVER said the OR's had to match when we were doing this in class. That kind of upsets me about that. This is actually very useful information. Thanks
My Professor didn't do a bad job at explaining this. In fact my organic chem 1 and 2 professor (same guy) was actually one of the best professors I've had. Professor Dave just has a way of explaining things though that just helps so much. Awesome vid!
@@vidit9024 A Jee aspirant huh?😂 I too thought the same thing we need to know something which these guys study in college just to get into a good college😑😂
Thank you very much, I'm a french student currently in biology studies and I had a big problem with understanding organic chemistry. Your explanations were very clear, I got it know ! Thank you again !
Thanks for this explanation! Im having an organic chem exam next week which also includes aldol and claisen condensations. And its nicely explained here so thanks May i also request a video on the malonic ester synthesis? It would really fit into this catagory of reactions and would love to see a video on it :)
4:40 Wouldnt part of the intermediate react into an alcohol, rather than the desired product? If the charge is on the oxygen, it would also be protonated, wouldnt it? If this is true, how can you isolate the final product and if this is false, why doesnt this happen?
What if you use a different base to remove an alpha proton? Can you use NaOH or would the ester be prone to base-catalyzed hydrolysis? What about sodium hydride or amide (NaNH2)? I'm assuming NaNH2 would create an amide but not sure about NaH.

Out of curiosity, how'd the rest of your class go?

this video is the best explanation I've had thus far of these reactions. a true life saver
Just one question dude, at what level are u studying ( college or school) this stuff????

Hey how'd the rest of your organic chemistry studies go?
I’m from Puerto Rico and you are helping me A LOT. Thank you.
THANK YOU PROF DAVE. I WISH I FOUND YOUR VIDEOS SOONER.
Thank you! This was so helpful. I'm taking my last class of the series during this pandemic......
Oh wow; I hope it went well!
you are the best man ...keep it up !!!! thank you from Germany.

ok i'll put it on the list!
@@ProfessorDaveExplains Did that video ever get put up? that is what I am looking for now!
Hey I know it's been four years, but how did that exam go?
This was an extremely helpful video on something that was giving me a lot of trouble! Thankyou for killing it again!!
dave mate you really are a gentleman and a scholar!
Thanks for helping!
My finals started and I've got organic chemistry next Sunday so this is very useful ~
I know it's been a year, but if I might ask, how'd your ochem final go?
Thank you Sir. My concept is finally clear for this reaction.
Thank God for you even after 5 years
Very helpful during this pandemic, thank you soooooo much. You explain really well
Still saving students around the world in 2024, thanks Dave!
Thanks Prof
This feels like learning in LKG class... Very interesting and very informative❤😍
thank you!! you've helped me a lot, you and your explanations are the best
Going to be honest here. Even though I left the video at exactly where I needed to start it, I started over for the jingle.
I think a lot of people actually do that, myself included sometimes.
Very helpful for JEE! Thankyou.
Claisen Condensation Vs Claisen Reaction and Claisen Rearrangement : ruclips.net/video/AZy5NgeTPpg/видео.html
How'd the JEE go?
I like your intro sir ..
Thank you Professor Dave! This was really useful and now I understand it :)
You are a wonderful man. Long live Dave
"feel free to e-mail me" as if the guy hasn't done enough
Ur great specially in physics
very helpful dave iam from india
At the very end of the video, the dieckman condensation product has an alpha carbon, so could it be deprotonated and continue the reaction?
Thank you so much Dave! It´s a shame your amazing videos do just get that few views. Greetings from Germany and thanks for making o-chem fun! :)
Hello professor dave thank you for the explanation
Thank you Sir
Beta keto ester * 4:53
4:40 Wouldnt part of the intermediate react into an alcohol, rather than the desired product? If the charge is on the oxygen, it would also be protonated, wouldnt it? If this is true, how can you isolate the final product and if this is false, why doesnt this happen?
Claisen Condensation Vs Claisen Reaction and Claisen Rearrangement : ruclips.net/video/AZy5NgeTPpg/видео.html
Hi professor, will the Dieckmann Condensation product be attacked by the alkoxide again and we need to undergo acidic workup?
Dieckmann? More like "Dang good information man!" 👍
What if you use a different base to remove an alpha proton? Can you use NaOH or would the ester be prone to base-catalyzed hydrolysis? What about sodium hydride or amide (NaNH2)? I'm assuming NaNH2 would create an amide but not sure about NaH.
Why here alkoxide is used for proton abstraction and not the regular strong base as in the case of aldol condensation?
Alkoxides are strong bases.
Thank you!
Good
what if you are starting with eto- then adding NaoCH3 Rs not matching
What is the difference between Claisen and Alden condensation and which is more optimal in reactions of functional groups?
claisen is ester substrate, aldol is aldehyde/ketone substrate
been trying to view this video for a few days. doesnt seem to work
Wow, I love thissss
Gran video!!! 😊😊😊😊
4:59 won't there be acid assisted ester hydrolysis due to addition of acid HA at the last step/
You’re the best
Thanks .
Sir is the carbon in methane a primary secondary or tertiary ?
none!
Prof, do you have tutorials on glycolysis?
Prof Dave, please I'm waiting for a reply?
Wow you are an impatient fellow! Yes I do, check my biochemistry playlist.
@@ProfessorDaveExplains Thank you Prof Dave, I believe with your help I will get an A in biochemistry this semester.
@@danielagyemang5858 I know it's been a few years, but if I might ask, did you indeed get that A in biochemistry?
@@PunmasterSTP No. I got a B
Professor dave you are beesssttt
my ochem professor could never
I know it's been a few years, but how'd the rest of ochem go?
🎯
Yes professor dave explains .
....
Mmmmmmm
It's about 00:30, but whatever, I'm early 😅
Professor Dave are you really a professor? Or just the name😅 Because if you aren't, im now honoring you to be one😅😂
God abeg😭
hey dave give me a reply too man
i never got it....:(
what up!
Finally
I just saw your comment and I'll give you a reply as well. How you doing today?
💓❤
hey you just look like ranbir kapoor (bollywood actor) like if u agree
I don't actually know who that is, but I'll go ahead and like your comment anyway!
I dony know 😫😫😫 how to be good in chemistry 😒😓😖😖😖
Its so confusing subject for me
It can definitely be tough! If I might ask, how have your studies been going?
