Michael Addition

More enolate stuff with the Michael Addition. Look out for tautomerization!

Check out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!

Your explanation of electrophilicity at 1:40 is so good! Really clicked for me.

I was going crazy looking for organic chemistry lectures in Portuguese until I found you! You're the best chemistry teacher ever.

Dat Intro....stuck in my head forever...xD Thx

[GigaLordShinyMudkip]

I appreciate the efficiency you explain things. Thanks mate.

[minchem]

Very easy and accurate explanation of 1, 2 and 1, 4 additions differences/similarities. Well done 👍🏻

Huh...2 weeks of class in 5 minutes, and I feel I understood it 10x better! Thanks man! :DDD

[gracedemalona]

Just got yourself a new "biggest-fan" ! SO thrilled I came across your fabulous videos - so many things are much clearer now :-)) Thanx!

Once again, thanks Prof. Dave. Learning chemistry out of pure interest is one of the many oddball things I do. I had no idea until the other day that you had videos on astronomy. Pretty much taught myself that over 20 years ago. I said an astronomy type joke the other day to my daughter and of course, none of the family laughed. Except me. I told her she needed to finish cleaning her room before our Star moves out of its main sequence ! When I explained it to her naturally she didn't laugh !!
I try to joke like that with her in an effort to get her more involved with science. It works, sometimes ! 😉

Michael addition? More like "Amazing if you listen!" Thanks for putting together such high-quality and easy to listen to videos.

Great video, just have to be picky with what you said at 3 20...the keto form does not have more energy in the bonds, in fact it has less since nature proceeds toward forming the most stable, therefore, least energetic state...I think you knew this but just misspoke.

[jenzzzzz]

I have a final exam in 3 days and I just learned it in class but didn't understand it. Thank you so much for the help

[anjansaha]

very very thanks from India.
So clear explanation🙇🙇🙏🙏

[badashby]

Question Dave: Why would you go to a more energetic bond? Aren't lower energy molecules favored?

[isaacmudau]

You good Audible, I can't wait to watch more of your videos

[sukainaalherz]

you are such great professor....thank you very much for this video you just make the subject as piece of cake for me...

[justuswolf]
