Great presentation! Breaking down complex ideas is the hardest thing to do! Only one comment, "philos" doesn't mean "loving", it means "friend". So electrophile, for example, is the one being friends with electrons.

Hi Leah! I don't know if you remember me but I commented on one of your videos in late 2016 saying you were one of the reasons I aced both my organic I and II courses with 90+/100 in my chemistry undergrad degree. Well now i'm about to enter my senior (and final) year as an undergrad and I have organic III in my first semester and that means i'll be needing your help once again! I searched your website and youtube channel and I don't think I found videos related to organic III. My university's chem department teaches a lot of courses that many universities do not provide in their chemistry undergrad degree (organic III I think being one of them). Maybe that's the reason? Anyway this is the course outline for orgo III: pKa in organic chemsitry Enols and enolates Radical substitutions Pericyclic reactions and cycloaddtitions Molecular Transpositions Chemistry of aromatic heterocycles Oxidation and reduction reactions in organic synthesis I hope in future you'd do videos on at least one of these topics. You really are a gifted teacher and I deeply appreciate and thank you for everything you've done for me and others (needless to say).

Hey Leah, I was wondering at 8:30 in your video, how would we know the CH3 would be the Nucleophile rather than the MgBr. I thought it was always CH3 would be the positive end and MgBr would be the negative. Thanks!

Have you learned organometallics yet? This is a grignard reagent characteristic for a carbonion-like carbon atom.

@adiran2016 6 лет назад

@leah4sci I'm just familiarizing myself with organic chem and have a question -- the full headed arrow indicates that 2 electrons are moving but in the examples im seeing it seems that only one electron is really moving to be shared (or are both being moved to be shared?) so i'm confused on why the half headed arrow isnt being used to instead indicate that one electron is being moved to be shared (because doesn't the middle atom have at least one valence electron to share? Hope this makes sense.

@Leah4sci 8 месяцев назад

@user-lh1jb2xm3z 6 лет назад

7:46 you said it is an electrophile due to the partial positive but why ignore the partial negative charge and only focus on the partial positive charge which concluded to be an electrophile?

@Leah4sci 6 лет назад

we look at the specific area on the molecule that gets attacked. In this case it's the carbonyl carbon while the oxygen does not get attacked or do an attack.

@orcgaming3594 6 лет назад

Hey miss thank a lot

@Leah4sci 7 месяцев назад

You're very welcome!

@user-lh1jb2xm3z 6 лет назад

10:50 The formal charge makes C, negative and Cl neutral and partial charge makes C, positive and Cl, negative. Why does the electron moves from C to Cl not Cl to C?

@Leah4sci 6 лет назад

I'm confused, C is not negative. Cl is electronegative and pulls on the electrons so much till they break off and collapse onto the Cl pulling them.

@katefuglestad5894 Год назад

At 8:23, I don't understand why that particular bond was chosen as the nucleophile. Why that one and not the bond between Mg and Br?

@Leah4sci Год назад

That's a great question! The Mg has low electronegativity. Therefore, any negative charge will gravitate towards the neighboring atoms of Bromine and Carbon. However, the difference in these two atoms is that Bromine can actually hold a negative charge and be stable. While a Carbon holding a negative charge is highly UNstable and, therefore, very reactive. In the case of a Grignard, the carbon acts as a carbanion, and this explains why the electrons between C and Mg are the ones acting as the nucleophile here. For more, please visit my tutorial on the Grignard reaction and mechanism at Leah4sci.com/Grignard

@sinajafarzadeh9577 3 года назад

Sorry if it dumb but why you didn't attach MgBr instead of CH3 to form the new molecule?

@Leah4sci 2 года назад

It is actually the carbon that acts as the nucleophile in a Grignard reagent. If you want to learn more, visit my tutorial on this reaction at Leah4sci.com/Grignard

@rabz-jsh7829 Год назад

@back2back135 6 лет назад

@IIT24Aspirant 11 месяцев назад

11:20 why did O moved it's lone pair in the first place?? It's electronegative and can easily hold -ve charge so why did it shift it's lone pair towards less electronegative N??

@Leah4sci 11 месяцев назад

Of course, oxygen is electronegative. It can hold negative charge, but it can also be happy and stable when neutral. Notice that the new molecule that we form in this reaction has lower total formal charges and is arguably MORE stable than our starting molecule because of this.

@user-lh1jb2xm3z 6 лет назад

12:46 why the Cl is separated not the OH ? :)

@Leah4sci 6 лет назад

OH is a strong attacker and bad leaving group. Cl is the opposite. The better leaving group is the one that gets kicked out

@Leah4sci 6 лет назад

practice and repetition. Read the chapter again, do practice and more practice. Get help if you get stuck. do more practice

@VeritasEtAequitas 4 года назад

Do many practice problems and pay attention to the electrons. The problem with all of these RU-vidrs videos and Khan academy is a lack of practice problems

@tenzoemury1714 10 месяцев назад

So at the beginning. Why is hydronium and not water drawn as one of the products?

@Leah4sci 9 месяцев назад

Oh wow you're so right! Without taking the solvent into consideration, conservation of atoms should give us just 2 H in addition to what's on carbon! Great catch!

Madam why only Cl is leaving here? Why not OH. O is even more electronegative than Cl

@DivyaDrewBiebs 6 лет назад

Cl is a good leaving group because it can accept electrons better ( 'Cause it needs 1 electron to attain octet) than Oxygen.
