That is probably the best explanation on Newman Projections ever. I understood the subject in less than 15 minutes otherwise I'd probably spent at least 2-3 hrs to understand whats going on. Big thanks as always Prof. Dave!
Professor Dave... I pay £9000 for uni every year but what I learn from you is ten times more understandable to me than anything my lecturers teach. I just wanted to say thank you so so so much for putting all this material up for free for us because you are saving my life at the moment I LOVE YOU! KEEP UP YOUR GOOD WORK I hope you get anything you want in life you good man
woohoo! thanks for the kind words! and by the way i'll gladly accept a tiny fraction of that tuition money on my patreon page as thanks :) or just tell all your friends to subscribe!
I know many people say this, but by far, you are the best organic chem professor/teacher i have ever come across. It's crazy how many hours we spend in class to learn something, when this man teaches it in under 20 minutes. It blows my mind, truly. Thank you, sir.
My teacher was so bad I thought I wasn't going to learn anything this year. Glad to know that I can walk out with a solid foundation in orgo with your help! Thanks a bunch!!
I thought this was so complicated when i opened my book. You helped me a lot, although it was a little confusing for me to translate English to Swedish and then understand it in arabic in my brain😂 Thanks for this awesome video😍❤️👏🏻👏🏻
@@ProfessorDaveExplains i know it its is used in astronomy we can measure distances between stars, its the arc length and application of trignometry . I googled it when i was in 9 class because it was the weirdest unit of distance i ever heard. do you have a chart of your channel or syllabus or study map or something so that i can see whats in what videows or playlists. if not i would still make use of video labels , even though it may take some time
I swear to god, i spent an hour and twenty minutes "learning" this in class today. right now, i spent fifteen minutes actually LEARNING this. thanks dave, you're the GOAT.
Much thanks to you Professor Dave. Currently taking summer 1 organic chemistry and I have to hand it to you; you've been helping me a lot with understanding organic chemistry within a 6-week crunched time compared to the normal college semester being roughly 13 to 14 weeks.
Shouldn't the first carbon represent the dot on your drawing, and not the circle? I am referring to the carbon that we are looking at, and you begin to draw at 11:40.
Your channel is just fantastic! Thank you for everything you offer to us! I have a question regarding the Newman projections. I have read that the front carbon is represented through a central dot and that the circle is representing the back carbon. Is this simply another way to interpret, to imagine, to depict the Newman projection or is one of the theories wrong?
I'm reviewing for my Orgo II final and I can confidently say that because I watched this video, this is the first time I've understood Newman Projections throughout my entire organic chemistry education
This was a very clear and focused explanation of Newman projections. It was very helpful in answering some questions I had; thank you for posting this video.
Well thanks sir....You really explained it well by using the practical example which made my concepts crystal clear ....☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️ LOVE FROM INDIA❤️❤️❤️
Your work is so inspirational! :) I Love how easily understandable your lectures are, and I really liked the theme song after your videos! Thanks a bunch! I'm streaming a lot of your vids in just 2 days and it doesn't bore me out
Thank you ever so much, Dave. This helped tremendously. My professor has his work cut out for him, teaching an 8 week, accelerated ochem course, but he still does a pretty terrible job each lecture. At least I know I can come home and check out one of your videos and not feel so lost!
Well, didn't understood what it was about first, and then boom! You explained it as easily like it was the alphabet. Don't know how you are doing this, but, thanks Professor Dave! You are one of the best teachers I had ever seen.
You are amazing teacher and sir please more videos of organic chemistry . I am preparing for medical exams and your video will be very helpful to learn the basics .
The prescribed textbook of my second year organic chemistry explains that the front carbon you look at directly is the front 3 lines connected in the middle, and the back circle is the farther carbon; even your ball and stick model corresponds to the drawing on the board, but in your explanation you said the front carbon is the circle :/
Well it's all a matter of interpretation since the diagrams aren't real, but to me it makes no sense to call the circle the back carbon because the bonds project from the edges, as though they connect at a point that is hidden behind it.
Well said. Should have mentioned stability between these conformations that eclipsed arrangements due to their higher energy they are unstable compared to staggered conformations (anti conformation and gauche conformation).
I see the circle as the front carbon. It doesn’t make sense to me how one carbon would be a point and the other a circle. The circle obscures the other bonds.
Sounds ridiculous to me. Why would the bonds on the back carbon initiate from the edge of the circle while the ones on the front carbon initiate at the center? And how is it that you can see the back carbon? It's moot because it is a made up convention, but it's clearly supposed to be the front carbon.
Like u said the carbon carbon bond in ethane rotates and form different confirmations then the energy of molecules constantly keeps on changing from staggered to eclipsed??? And while some reaction only the eclipsed confirmation undergoes changes ???
Dave I'm begging you please, how are we supposed to know where invisible wedges go? And what to put on them? I feel like my professor implies a lot of stuff and I'm autistic and just can't figure out why stuff like "Ch3" goes somewhere without anything telling me it's supposed to go there

hey true
@Zaire Terry Get to know that no one gives a shit about it cause it's an educational channel.
Same here..............

Wow! Your channel is a treasure...I will plan myself to watch all your videos! Thank you!
exactlyy...
hey true u have too
INCREDIBLE VIDEO!!!!! FROM AN MIT STUDENT IN ORGANIC CHEMISTRY GOD BLESS YOU
My teacher was so bad I thought I wasn't going to learn anything this year. Glad to know that I can walk out with a solid foundation in orgo with your help! Thanks a bunch!!
whatever my professor couldn't teach me in 2hrs, you taught me in 15mins
you're an unbelievable legend
I am from India and u teach as really well as my teachers
I thought this was so complicated when i opened my book. You helped me a lot, although it was a little confusing for me to translate English to Swedish and then understand it in arabic in my brain😂 Thanks for this awesome video😍❤️👏🏻👏🏻
Best explanation out there. I finally get it. Also, love the parsec tat. Thank you.
nobody ever knows what it is!

my pleasure!
I was lost on conformations for few days, since I have watched this video now I can understand things very clearly. Thanks!!
Starting theme song is great.
That sound in between however....
....is an assault on your ears!
IN PICTURES (STEREO):
💥🥴😖😵🤯🤕 🤕🤯😵😖🥴💥
these classroom videos are really good! this is professor dave at his highest energy levels! fantastic teacher

no, the circle is the front carbon! we can't see the back carbon.
U r teaching is outstanding ! I love ur way of teaching !
This is the kind of teaching we need the most Professor Dave , keep on video ing more often ....
I'm studying Pharmacy,and i can tell that You are the best Prof that i've ever known❤thank you so much❤all the studants love you very much for sure❤
I'm reviewing for my Orgo II final and I can confidently say that because I watched this video, this is the first time I've understood Newman Projections throughout my entire organic chemistry education
I don't think it's actually possible to explain it any better than he did. Saved my grade!
it is a really good examination
Thank you very much ..... the best organic channel
Best explanation I've ever seen for Newman projections.

You got an amazing ability of giving an in-depth, concise and easiest explanation of anything you know.
BTW what do you mean by dihedral angle?
Buying a model and following along REALLY helps

This was so helpful. I can understand this way better than what they teach us in class. Thanks a lot!
Thank you Sir. Your explanation was really helpful.
This has cleared my confusion on this Newman project. Thanks

i used to teach an 8-week accelerated ochem course! maybe that's why i'm good at it trimming things down :)
Always thought this is hard till Professor enlightened me..am grateful!!
You really deserve billions of subscribs.
Well, didn't understood what it was about first, and then boom! You explained it as easily like it was the alphabet. Don't know how you are doing this, but, thanks Professor Dave! You are one of the best teachers I had ever seen.
Is the last example 2-bromo-2-chloro-1-fluoro-1-butanol ?
Man you really make my lesson more interactive. Thanks
Understand it fully for the first time ❤️
This is what we call Expert. Great job!
Professor Dave you're such a boss!!!!!!!!!
Not the TAs, not the GTAs, and not even the 3 professors could make me understand what you taught me just now. Thanks!
awesome explanation sir
Mr. Dave, I must confess. You have saved my entire academic career several times. And you're handsome to boot
Gold as usual
prof.you real helped me with your explanation thanks!!!!
Wahoo I never knew this was so simple as this ❤ I love your class so much 😘😘
You are amazing teacher and sir please more videos of organic chemistry . I am preparing for medical exams and your video will be very helpful to learn the basics .
You are the reason why im making good grades.
Thank you Professor Dave.
The best explanation ever on Konformation .Thanks a lot for such useful and efficient Videos and definitely for ur Efforts ❣🤩
Thank you Dave! God Bless
Omg 😍 sir you made it too easy to understand, I understand all the concept of conformation thankyou 🌌 love from INDIA
everyone should watch these videos
amazing explanations..clear, concise, and simple. A university would be lucky to have you but I'm glad you're on youtube instead
You are AMAZING!! Thank you so much for your awesome videos! :))
+Tracey Valo (TraceyyV) my distinct pleasure! feel free to send questions.
Your explanation is top notch
Thank you very much
I wish I could subscribe a million times. Thank you so much professor Dave
THANKS DR. Dave. I hope you revise the point of front carbon as circle Bec. Neerer carbon is represented as lines while the far carbon as circle
No, the back carbon is obscured from view. It makes no sense to treat one carbon as a point and the other as a circle.
super helpful clear explanations. Thank you.
Such an amazing explanation 💞
Thank you!
This was very helpful thank you so much
Very helpful.
And will be waiting for an app u make where all videos are available
they're already all available on youtube!
Professor Jesus here
thanks professori Dave
I wish I didn't spend an hour reading my textbook trying to comprehend this. You explain it so well!
Thanks a alot It's really helpful!
Thanks Prof Dave. Best explanation
If the molecule is in eclipsed position, does that mean it has more potential energy than the staggered one?
professor dave is KING
One of the best teachers!! 👏👏

Good job,man!
Thank you so much. Really though, thank you.
Thank you so much.
Ur explaination is over the top..
Um, what?
Your explainations are over the top...
Yeah, you said that already, want to clarify what you could possibly mean by that?
What i want to say is that your explanations are awesome...
Ah, I see. Well thank you!
you are a real professor
The front carbon should be the point in the center of the circle with the OH, F and H bonds attached. The circle should be the back carbon right?
I see the circle as the front carbon. It doesn’t make sense to me how one carbon would be a point and the other a circle. The circle obscures the other bonds.
Prof. Dave the front carbon isn’t represented by a circle. The back carbon is represented by the circle.
I just read this from a book.
Sounds ridiculous to me. Why would the bonds on the back carbon initiate from the edge of the circle while the ones on the front carbon initiate at the center? And how is it that you can see the back carbon? It's moot because it is a made up convention, but it's clearly supposed to be the front carbon.
@@ProfessorDaveExplains umm you can have a look at the Solomon and Fryhle organic chemistry sir.
Like u said the carbon carbon bond in ethane rotates and form different confirmations then the energy of molecules constantly keeps on changing from staggered to eclipsed???
And while some reaction only the eclipsed confirmation undergoes changes ???
it is very goog video sir
can u explain the how to inter convert newman,shawhorse,wedge dash,fisher projectiom by 1 example?
Dave I'm begging you please, how are we supposed to know where invisible wedges go? And what to put on them? I feel like my professor implies a lot of stuff and I'm autistic and just can't figure out why stuff like "Ch3" goes somewhere without anything telling me it's supposed to go there
from Bangladesh ........Ur videos are awesome
Thanks doc❤
Thank you so much!!!!! I understand it SO MUCH BETTER NOW!!!! :)
I am class 11 student and your explanation is very good . Lots of love from INDIA 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
Hello! What model kit do you use? I like yours better than the one I have for my orgo class.
It's called molymod, it's just the one I've had since college, nothing terribly special! But it's good.
this guy is fr the goat
U deserve a billion dollars.
You are a gem thank you so much!
It is very helpful sir
Do conformational isomers have the same physical properties?
Can Newman projection applied to more than 1 Bond such as alkene n alkyne or even Carbonyl group?
