These videos are excellent, what a lot of other chemistry channels lack is the small details so I always had questions on those, but you managed to answer all of them. Thank you so much!
With the exception of vinylic carbocations, they all are sp2 hybridized. It's not an "if" statement. And whenever we have a reaction that has a carbocation as an intermediate, you're *always* going to have some degree of racemization in your product. In most cases, we're going to get ~50/50% mixture of both possible stereoisomers.
I am going to be adding some aspects of thermodynamics when it's applicable towards the concepts I'm discussing, but I'm currently not planning any non-organic chemistry related videos in the near future.
@@VictortheOrganicChemistryTutor the oxygen portion I would think. But I guess what I'm asking is, did you exclude the H from that part of the drawing for a particular reason?
