what's your favorite solvent in ochem? footage from Substitution Reactions - SN1 and SN2 Mechanisms: Crash Course Organic Chemistry #21, Determining SN1, SN2, E1, and E2 Reactions: Crash Course Organic Chemistry #23, educat.ninja sn2 reaction mechanism animation. review by Jordan, Hall, Thorp, & Sneddon, 2022, Chemical Reviews. "Dipolar aprotic and ethereal solvents comprise just over 40% of all organic solvents utilized in synthetic organic, medicinal, and process chemistry. Unfortunately, many of the common “go-to” solvents are considered to be “less-preferable” for a number of environmental, health, and safety (EHS) reasons such as toxicity, mutagenicity, carcinogenicity, or for practical handling reasons such as flammability and volatility. Recent legislative changes have initiated the implementation of restrictions on the use of many of the commonly employed dipolar aprotic solvents such as dimethylformamide (DMF) and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP), and for ethers such as 1,4-dioxane. Thus, with growing legislative, EHS, and societal pressures, the need to identify and implement the use of alternative solvents that are greener, safer, and more sustainable has never been greater. Dipolar aprotic solvents are ubiquitous in organic chemistry due to their ability to dissolve a wide variety of materials (often including salts), their versatility as reaction media...Another key factor that encourages their widespread use includes the abundance and precedence of existing literature supporting their use in myriad transformations and processes. Dipolar aprotic solvents, such as dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone (NMP), acetonitrile (CH3CN), acetone, and tetrahydrofuran (THF) are regularly encountered as reaction solvents in chemical transformations." #ochem #organicchemistry #chemist #apchem #sn2

what reaction was your favorite in ochem? footage sources: Named Reactions in Organic Chemistry - DMP Oxidation, Crash Course Organic Chemistry - Aldehyde and Ketone Reactions - Hydrates, Acetals, & Imines. summary from the Chemistry Department at Purdue. "It is somewhat misleading to write the carbonyl group as a covalent C=O double bond. The difference between the electronegativities of carbon and oxygen is large enough to make the C=O bond moderately polar. As a result, the carbonyl group is best described as a hybrid of the following resonance structures. We can represent the polar nature of this hybrid by indicating the presence of a slight negative charge on the oxygen (d-) and a slight positive charge (d+) on the carbon of the C=O double bond. Reagents that attack the electron-rich d - end of the C=O bond are called electrophiles (literally, "lovers of electrons"). Electrophiles include ions (such as H+ and Fe3+) and neutral molecules (such as AlCl3 and BF3) that are Lewis acids, or electron-pair acceptors. Reagents that attack the electron-poor d+ end of this bond are nucleophiles (literally, "lovers of nuclei"). Nucleophiles are Lewis bases (such as NH3 or the OH- ion)." #ochem #organicchemistry #chemist #genchem #premed

Organic chemistry is the scientific study of the structure, properties, composition, reactions, and synthesis of carbon-containing compounds. While it started as the study of “living” things, it has evolved into a field that creates everything from life-saving medicines to the screen you are reading this on. 🧪 The Core Concept: Carbon is King At the heart of the subject is the Carbon atom. Because carbon can form four stable covalent bonds, it acts like a “molecular Lego brick,” allowing for the creation of incredibly complex chains, rings, and 3D structures. 🏗️ Key Pillars of Organic Chem • Functional Groups: These are specific clusters of atoms (like Alcohols, Ketones, or Carboxylic Acids) that determine how a molecule will behave. • Hydrocarbons: The simplest organic compounds, made entirely of Hydrogen and Carbon (Alkanes, Alkenes, and Alkynes). • Isomerism: A fascinating phenomenon where molecules have the same “ingredients” (formula) but different “recipes” (structure), leading to totally different properties. • Reaction Mechanisms: The “step-by-step” maps showing exactly how electrons move to break and form new bonds. 💊 Why It Matters Organic chemistry isn’t just a difficult pre-med course; it is the foundation of: 1. Pharmacology: Designing molecules to target specific diseases. 2. Petrochemistry: Fuels, plastics, and synthetic fibers. 3. Biochemistry: Understanding DNA, proteins, and the metabolism of life. #OrganicChemistry #Chemistry #Science #Carbon #Molecules STEM LabLife PreMed MolecularBiology ChemMajor
