I'm in an ochem class and I was was looking for some really developed vidoes for some topics because my brain wasn't really latching on. I'm happy to have found your channel because your explanations are just right for how I learn! Thank you so much!

Thank you so much Margaret! I love KZfaq because there are so many great ochem teachers, and everyone can find someone who explains it in a way that makes sense to them :)

Since there is no rotation around the double bond. How can we have an inversion center on a double ?

How is there 2 chiral centers in cyclohexane-1,2-diol? I see it has there being 5 carbons and the same group on either hydroxy. Is it because of a trans configuration?

Hi, Samantha! Recently I have discovered your KZfaq channel by accident and I'm glad that I did it! :D The organic molecule you showed in 10:22 is Nirmatrelvir, antiviral medication for Covid treatment; its brand name is Paxlovid. Honestly, I didn't even know that it exists, but now I researched and learned an additional new fact. Thank you! :)
