Amazing video series watched it before my org exam!

[@VictortheOrganicChemistryTutor]

Awesome! So glad the videos helped you out before your exam. Good luck!

[@emilfischer5148]

The mechanism is really interesting! Are you going to talk more about how it works in the future?

[@emilfischer5148]

is there a better way of modeling the reaction other than curved arrows?

[@VictortheOrganicChemistryTutor]

Yep, that's the plan. I didn't want to overload this video with too many details.

Hi victor 👋 . I need a guide for a question. I told you in your direct message, but you didn't reply.😢
