Alcohols, Ethers, and Epoxides: Crash Course Organic Chemistry #24

[@drrichardpepper]

Not sure if you know this or not, but in prison in Georgia your videos are actually downloadable on these tablets they gave us. I went when I was 18 and watched your videos 2-3 years later when I got one. I would watch them every night before I fell asleep after I got to a decent place. Just wanted to say thank you for the videos and you are teaching people you may not even know about.

[@ricardasist]

Am I the only one who can't keep up with how fast everything is being explained?

[@aneetnaidu]

I set playback to .5 and it made it alot easier to digest

[@aneetnaidu]

Fair warning tho, there is one side effect. It makes her sound like a privileged valley girl.

[@Mr_Wallet]

Honestly the entire series is kind of a disappointment since it's so strongly oriented towards people who need help with their O. Chem. homework and not very accessible to merely curious people (who aren't putting in 3 units of time into independent study). Every other CrashCourse series to date is extremely accessible and it's why I subscribed to the channel.

[@aurorafranklin9344]

no.

[@ShirinRose]

I'm a little surprised there was no mention of ethers like diethyl ether being used as solvents in organic reactions. I remember using it to extract organic products from aqueous solutions at university, and having to be careful to regularly release the pressure from the separating funnel since diethyl ether is so volatile.

[@abrakadabra1682]

Also you could use acid catalysed ether synth

[@ScottKorin]

This isn't a coincidence that this was released on St. Patrick's Day

OMG I watched the first video in this series out of curiosity, and when I went to look up the full playlist I was surprised to see that it's still in progress!! This was uploaded 5 days ago when I'm seeing it. I'm trying to decide if I should take ochem over the summer so I wanted to see what the topics were. This series came just in time!!!

[@finhasnebiyou987]

Fun Fact: The requirment to be teacher in crash course is FAST-TALKING!

[@eva.jrprasad4277]

Under-rated one !

[@anjulovesdoracakes22]

Please upload a video on aldehydes, ketones and carboxylic acids ( I.e carbonyl compounds) and amines ASAP!

[@rachitvyas8173]

greatttt! Failed a chem test on the same topic today

[@tanviudgiri6616]

i didn't think i'd be early to a crash course video, but here i am, and honestly i'm not disappointed

[@ayurshee9629]

WOWW!! I AM IN LOVE WITH ORGANIC CHEM NOW!❤

[@samad5125]

this a great lecture you sure are trying really hard to make this as intresting and understandable as possible because there are so many repeatitions in organic chemistry

[@muskansiddikee2171]

Man I feel sad it's to late 😭. I wish I had this before my high school 😭

Once again a phenomenal video! Just one remark: At around 5:20, you talk about the general model of the reaction of an alcohol with an hydrogen halide to form an alkyl halide. Yet, what you show in the video is the distinct example of using hydrochloric acid to form an alkyl chloride. When talking about the general mechanism, wouldn't it be even more suitable to replace "HCl" with "HX" to show that any hydrogen halide can be used? And that any alkyl halide can thus be obtained using this approach?

[@philippg.1293]

@DespacitoXR I totally agree with you, and there's obviously nothing wrong with the reaction scheme they presented. I was just thinking that even if HCl and/or HBr are the most common ones, they could have presented the general model in a more general way to avoid any potential misunderstandings (by putting solely HCl one could falsely think that other HX compounds might react differenly; besides, they had just explained the mechanism with the example of HBr a minute prior).

[@yashvangala]

I'm sad that my O chem class will be ahead of this series by next week I can't use crash course to study for exams anymore :(

[@01ECLIPSIFY10]

First time I’ve seen organic chemistry referred to as “ochem”. That’s interesting. I myself have typically seen it referred to as “orgo” or “the chemistry that kills” haha

[@yashvangala]

@@01ECLIPSIFY10 lol, at my high school we have honors chem and ap chem too so it felt natural to call organic chem as o chem

[@01ECLIPSIFY10]

@@yashvangala Ah, I see. It does make sense to call it ochem when you put it that way. Well, I wish you the best of good luck with ochem and your future endeavors!

[@kl1970]

Oh talk sn2 too me, you set the tempo i do the work

[@Qhsjahajw]

8:39 in base catalysed reaction H3O+ is mentioned

[@michellekeenan6267]

Hey could you guys make a video series on nutrition??

[@harisaisenthilkumar2880]

BEST COURSE EVER

[@SlowToe]

Alcohol? On Paddy's Day? Strange 😁

[@NotDavidxD-01]

KZbin is our school, and University is the place to get the diploma

[@caterscarrots3407]

Couldn't an aldehyde also be formed by adding a base to form the alkoxide and then time? Since negatively charged oxygen is unstable, if there is nothing else to react with, it will form a double bond with the carbon for stabilization purposes and tada, you have an aldehyde. And there wouldn't be anything else to react with, right? because the base has been neutralized and it's not like it can react with other alkoxides as they too have a negative charge on the oxygen and neutral carbons. So with a neutralized base and no further reaction, it's only time before the aldehyde is formed, right?

[@Dravaek]

of course you make this video on St. Patrick's Day

[@whiteb09]

This video has some flickering issues, like in the first 15 seconds of the video has a few but it continues throughout the video

[@Qetsia]

Yooo we did it y’all
