I swear this dude makes me feel passionate about what I’m studying. Thanks a lot, really. I’m from Italy and I can understand this better than any other lessons in Italian that I ever took in my university. You’re really good in what you do, I’m so happy that I found your channel. Thanks a lot again

You have no idea how much I aprreciate this. Thank you so much!

Came here for my Organic Chemistry assignment, super helpful, thanks!

Nitration? More like nice education! I can still hardly believe that this much free, high-quality material exists on KZread. Thanks again for taking the time to make and share these videos!

Great video, thank you so much!

This is my lab experiment. I have to explain the mechanism and thank god this vid showed up

what if there excess of no2, what secondary products could be formed?

Can you show how to form minor product 2-methyl-nitrobenzoate.

how do you know when something is an ortho para director

Isn’t the nitrogen in nitric acid positively charged? then when it deprotonates sulphuric acid we get a loss of water molecule, with the repulsion of the positive charges on the nitrogen and oxygen? Looking for clarification, thanks!

Point taken

So presence of dots shows negative charge

Het! Can the base be HNO3?

The base will be HSo4-, the hno3 only acts as an acid on the other hand, if you dig in deep, H2so4 acts as a 1. Bronsted base 2. Catalyst 3. Dehydrating agent

Super Duper

Why does aromaticity break in the first step?

why can bromobenzene not get the meta product?

Brylie Olafson is this because Br- is one of the electron donating groups?

It's because Br is a halogen which means that it is a weakly deactivating group; therefore, it can add only to the ortho and/or para positions. All other deactivating compounds add to the meta position. And activating compounds add to the ortho and/or para. So what you need to remember is that halogens are an exception, meaning that even though they are deactivating, they still induce addition at the ortho and/or para position.
