how is chlorine donating an e- to hydrogen and the benzene ring with out interacting, if that happens, shouldn't it be bonding with hydrogen forming HCl? or couldnt Cl- attack the positive charge on the benzene ring? im alittle lost at about 9:15
Sal I just want to correct a small mistake you made:
the aluminum chloride IS a catalyst with respect to alkylation reactions but the aluminum chloride in acylation reactions is NOT a catalyst because (after the reaction has been completed) the free electrons on the oxygen of the ketone will react with the lewis acid alcl3 to form a salt; and this salt must be broken with water which breaks the alcl3.
for acylation you need a 1:1 stoichometric ratio to achieve final product.
you sir, are the BEST chemics teacher !!!

you forgot the formation of HCl, hydrochloric acid, the Cl from the Aluminum tetrachloride and the H from the benzene
Great otherwise

I like your videos, but I hated you as a person after I saw your comment on another instructor's video.
