Imine and Enamines Made Easy! (3/3) Enamine Mechanism and Tips for Memorizing - Organic Chemistry

Frank you're a serious homie i love you big guy

Hey LittleTofu, guess what? The first part of my Acid/Base series is up! Hope it comes in handy ;), I'll be editing parts 2,3, and 4 these few days so keep an eye out for them.

The mech for aldehydes is exactly the same I believe, except for the last step where you need to do an elimination it would be the at the Beta carbon(second carbon from Nitrogen) on the R group of your Aldehyde. And then you would still form that alkene. But you should double check this with your Prof. to make sure I'm 99% sure that's how it works though. Btw, don't forget to subscribe if you want updates when I make future videos. ;)

Hey, your in luck! I was actually thinking about making a video about Acids and Base strengths if that's what you meant. Thanks for the positive feedback and tell your friends about my vids too ;)

[@TheLittleTofu]

can you make a video about acid and base strength? What are things that will help stabilize a conjugate acid or base? That would really help. Love your video very easy to follow.

Hi Frank! I wanted to know if you had videos for carboxylic acid derivatives? This video was very helpful! thank you!

[@OrgoMadeEasy]

Hmm I don't believe so, the carbon can't handle another R group, it would give it a positive charge and the nitrogen doesn't get any extra R groups during the reaction. If you could send me a picture of what you think the product is I can take a look and explain a little more.

How does this mechanism work for aldehydes?

[@HelloEloCraft]

I liked this video so much, it was very helpfull :-) In case the enamine was not symetrical how should we do the elimination （do we need to take the hydrogen from the most substituted carbon or the opposite?）Anyway, great video.

Aren't you missing an R group for the final Enamine?
