Amazing video! Thank you so much. Also love the canonically accurate angle depiction haha!

Great video as always! Would love to receive a video detailing what students need to know for deltaH. Feel like its something many understand superficially, but when one gets a question on it, the answer they put isn't always the most confident (or maybe that's just me haha)

should I memorize the mechanism ? how do I go about it

Memorizing mechanisms actually isn't very useful for the MCAT because it's multiple choice and because they rarely test intermediates. It's more important to be able to recognize structures and identify reasonable products based on those structures! Great question!

@@bremmethodwould you suggest just recognizing this process? What might they ask about these reactions?

Thanks so much! I wanted to ask how come Gabriel synthesis creates a racemic mixture if it is two Sn2 reactions?
@bremmethod

Great question! This is because the two isomer forms are created in that very last step, which is NOT an Sn2, but a hydrolysis and decarboxylation reaction. These are not stereospecific, so whichever ester is removed (the top or bottom) will define which isomer form is created. The Sn2 reactions are earlier in the synthesis BUT we don't actually have a chiral center until one of the esters is removed (the two esters are exactly the same, so that means the carbon they are bound to is NOT chiral, because a chiral center needs 4 unique substituents). So in this situation, the Sn2 reaction effect of 'flipping" chirality isn't relevant, since we didn't have a chiral center in that part of the reaction. Remember that in big syntheses reactions like this one, multiple different reaction types can be happening at different points in the synthesis!
