I like how you used different colors to help visualize the movement of the electrons and atoms. That's why I now follow your habit and use colored pens to take notes. 😃

I love using color; it find it so much easier to see and understand. So glad it's helping you, too!
I didnt know that how a lone pair forms bond with hydrogen But u explained that the nitrogen N takes both the electrons involved in N-H bond so hydrogen is not left with any electrons thats why it forms a bond with lone pair.... Really appreciate that 😊

Mam which one can undergo addition reaction most readily; Alkene Or Alkyne?..

Thanks for asking. Alkynes undergo hydrogenation reactions and nucleophilic addition reactions more readily than alkenes.

3:35, where do the blue hydrogens come from?
@Leah4sci
4 жыл бұрын
Hydrogen is required for this reaction, typically added in the form of H2 gas. H2 will first bind to the metal catalyst.
why does H2/Pd fully reduce the alkyne chain ??? why cant it stop at an alkene
@Leah4sci
2 жыл бұрын
The short answer: It is too strong of a reducing agent to stop at the alkene. We do have other methods of getting the alkyne to an alkene, namely H2 with the Lindlar's catalyst. Make sure to take a look at my redox cheat sheet at leah4sci.com/orgo-oxidation-reduction-reactions-study-guide-cheat-sheet/
Hello so overall reaction of trans alkene formation consumes 2 eqv Na & 2 eqv NH3?

in what situation would you use 2H2 ?
@Leah4sci
3 жыл бұрын
Great question! You use 2 moles of H2 as a reagent when performing a catalytic reduction of an alkyne to an alkane. This is because completely reducing all of the triple bonds in the sample to single bonds would require a 2:1 ratio of H2 to alkyne.
Instead of radical breaking, can we not visualize that the single electron attacks the alkyne carbon from the back (antibonding orbital) in SN2 fashion pushing the lone pair in the oppsite side to adjacent carbon as the original carbons bonding orbital changes to anti bonding one. In short a SN2 attack by a single electron on alkyne leading to trans lone pair - radical alkene intermediate.

Yeah trans radical is more stable but how can a double bond rotate ?
@Leah4sci
3 жыл бұрын
The double bond is not rotating. It’s more of a question of where the electron cloud containing the radical will gravitate. Non-bonding electrons (like the radical) are not tied down in space. According to the rules of VSEPR theory, it will choose to distance itself from the newly-formed lone pair as much as possible. Thanks for watching and asking!
What is the exact composition of lindlar reagent
@Leah4sci
2 жыл бұрын
Its primary make-up includes palladium metal. However, its composition is not required knowledge in most orgo classes. As long as you know WHAT the Lindlar catalyst does and what product it would create in a given reaction, you should be in good shape.

if alkenes can be reduced to alkane does alkanes can be reduced to alkens?
@watsoncrick6071
3 жыл бұрын
alkanes can't be reduced...reduction is addition of hydrogens.. there's no more space in alkanes to add some more hydrogens.
@Leah4sci

Agree with the other comment. Alkanes cannot be further reduced. There is no position for additional hydrogens to be added.
