and satisfies Huckel's Rule (2. 6, 10, 14 etc..)- while saliently recognizing that rings with lone pairs can contribute and therefore establish aromaticity, as illustrated by all the aromatics on the bottom row of rings on his whiteboard..
Good day Prof. Dave, for about 2 years now, I have been watching some of your Chem related podcasts here in RU-vid. And this one (you made) on Aromaticity is nice and impressive. You're really a smart Prof. with great teaching skills. My subscription for your RU-vid channel is totally worth it. Your chem podcasts are really helpful for some of these chem topics I didn't understand earlier in my classes. Well done on the good works you're doing out here. Many thanks to you.
Thank you for explaining things so clearly! I'm pretty sure 50% of what I learn this semester (with uni running online while we're in isolation) is going to come from watching your videos - thanks in advance!
2nd year Organic student here and we are almost done for the semester but you really broke this down in such a stupid simple way I can't thank you enough. Fantastic Video!
my teachers complicated too much with explanation of Huckel's Rule.. now i finally understand that and see how simple actually is.. thank you very much. greetings from croatia :)
Professor Dave, As a 12th grader preparing for one of the most difficult exams in the world (JEE Adv.) I must say, these videos really help, it saved organic chem for me, and perhaps my whole career too! Love you, professor, appreciate it so much :)
Hey Professor Dave, I absolutely love your videos!! You've been an incredible help in my studies and definitely a huge lifesaver right before exams. I'm in my third year of upper level college chem and still going strong. Thanks for all of your help!
Today I have presentation I am doing msc chemistry from India n I was watching your vedio my topic is factors affecting to acidity n basicity n u had explained in such a good manner sie u are wonderful teacher yhanks
When you were a little boy, did you know that you would one day grow up to save lives? Did you know that clear explanations save lives? Well, if you didn't know--now you know!!! You're SO appreciated!
Conjugation is e.g when 3 p orbitals join together into a larger “pi system”, Conjugation: Special stability associated with three or more adjacent, parallel, overlapping p orbitals, resulting in increased electron delocalization and longer electron wavelengths.. The different arrangements of electrons within that “pi system” are called resonance forms.
Thank you! I am from Germany and tried to find sth about Huckel's Rule, but I didn't find a single german video that explained it as good as yours!" :)
he didn't talk about cyclooctan 1,3,5,7 tetraene . very important. we think it is anti aromatic but it's actually non aromatic as it has a tub shape. But excellent explanation. Thank you professor !
Where were you last semester?!?!?... Why did I have to find your channel the last week of Organic 2 and the last week of college towards my chemistry degree... you da GOAT
Oh Man thank you so much, i had been so lost with this subject this whole week and have a test tomorrow, this cleared up so much. you are way better than my professor, thank you!!
Well... Here I am trying to figure out how to recognize aromatic molecules and I HAVE to say 2 things. 1. This is such a concise video and easy to understand. 2. Goodness sakes; you are a beautiful man.
