More on SN2, SN1, E2, and E1 reactions (1)

Organic chemistry: SN2, SN1, E2, and E1 mechanisms. Also some stereochemistry.

You are a great teacher. You make it so much easier than my college professor.

If I pass my final with an A, I'm gonna give you all kinds of money. This is a great explanation of the mechanisms used in orgo 1 . "

@Xoxocube Get a life. You put good people off making good videos.

Is the reaction starting at 8:50 really best defined as SN2? I'm asking because the alpha carbon is secondary.

What is the 'level' of steric hindrance associated with the methyl/ethyl groups bonded to the alpha carbon?

[acuralegend1995]

i think there is a mistake at 9:28 it should be a SN1 reaction because the carbon that bonds with chloro is connected to a methyl and ethyl...

Get a pop shield for your mic or fix your audio. It puts people off watching what might be a good video.

Yup, same with me!

I learn better from guided animations, but thanks anyway!
