Thanks for your kind words. You are welcome to join my class anytime.

I finally understand the rxn mechanism. I wish I would have had this guy for organic.

[xburnitdownx77]

Very well explained. Thanks so much!

[0250317]

Great video so clear and so easy to understand

can you post some more reactions like alkene additions maybe

I wish you are my prof

[linemaude191]

Very clear explanations and interesting because of some funny moments. Thank you!!!!

[Tablekorner]

So I've got to write a report on Victor Grignard. 30 seconds or so of a biography which I got done, then about 4 minutes of explaining the science that lead to his Nobel Prize. Which I would do but cannot not understand this at all... Everyone else in my class got people with easier stuff.

[Grrmiaouw]

very clear thanks! Greetings from Belgium :-) !

[moballer12]

very charming

[kokojaderinarina]

Kicyoaz,

Thanks for the kind words. Glad that you liked it. My students have these bits available to them to supplement their text. They seem to like them.

This is awesome!!! very very clear explanations. I hope you could make more videos on reaction mechanisms!

[salarb101]

This teacher is the best. after many years of chemistry and studying organic finally I understood Grignard reaction. wow

[tnagan]

Wow! So glad I found you, chemprof98! I love this video, and your style of teaching. I'm so glad to hear a teacher finally use the word stupid. It's a great word! And I also love chicken/chick!

[TheTritoneTerror]

This is super interesting. Almost makes me wish I'd majored in chemistry instead of music.

[chemprof98]

@TheTritoneTerror

Thanks for the kind words. Remember in the "good old days" the best chemists were musicians.

@TheTritoneTerror

I promise you that you would have regretted that decision.

[TheTritoneTerror]

@beal270 Why's that? I've been considering going back to school to study a hard science; why shouldn't I?

[hellobreakboy]

@TheTritoneTerror lol

im a chem major @ univeristy of sydney and i was gonna say "man i should'v did a degree in sound engineering" haha

[TelecasterBlaster]

Thank you. Very clear.

[unknownlove19]

this video is great

i just wish the camera was better quality

i found it really hard to see what you wrote on the board

[chemprof98]

Sorry, Unknown.

We work with what we have.

The bandwidth at my school is not the best.

[rpt611]

where can i find additional video's ? sick lecture

[Kryptsanies]

this reaction should be flame dried, cuz the gringard easily reacts with water so you gotta make sure you are working with dry conditions.

[Icix1]

These lectures are really good...they are easy to understand, clearly and concisely explained, informative and most importantly fast paced. I can learn the information I want to know, but not be bored or feeling like I want this to be over with. I've seen many a lecture where I wanted to turn it off in the first few minutes because of the pace.

[sfcsarah]

a light vinaigrette

lol

[sfcsarah]

thanks, that was a great video,

and you're really funny

[18062]

Tom mate, you are a life saver even in Australia! :D

As if no one laughed at ur palette thing :P I thought it was hilarious!

Go for the DVD's - you're great at teaching and you should sell well once people find out about ya. Not to mention, u'll save alotta poor second year Uni souls!

This was awsome! Thank you,

[CrowdedToast]

you are INCREDIBLY better than my organic II professor. publish some dvd's or something.

Chris

[chemprof98]

Glad it helped.

Funny you should mention the DVD option.

I am currently discussing that possibility with a publisher now.

[QbMaster2012]

Thanks, this video describes grignard reactions well. I found it while looking on youtube for some examples of grignard reactions taking place (unfortunately didn't find much) and it helped quite a bit :)

You should make more chemistry videos! Teach us more plz.

[cycro27]

Thank you, funny and helped a lot!

[athena149]

he's much better than my org prof :P

[chemprof98]

Athena,

Thanks for the kind words.  Hope it helped.
