Just letting you know that you're still helping students, 8 years later. Your website is what is helping me feel prepared for my ochem final when I didn't know where to start.

You’re so awesome, and the best out there, Leah and I could only wish I could be as great as you in understanding ochem with this level of understanding. I honestly love checking out the resources you put out there for us which helped/helps me more than you know so I at least wanted to let you know that! I also appreciate how clear, concise and colorful your explanations are and love your enthusiasm which I can tell from your voice that you’re truly passionate about these topics and what you do..Thank you!!! :)

God bless your soul.

Thank you!!!! You saved my life! I love the way you make things sound sooo easy! Thanks from France!

Outstanding! I was struggling to understand my textbook's explanation and example. Your explanation is fantastic.

Excellent & clear explanation. Thank you so much. Please keep up the good work! So much easier to follow than "The organic chem tutor"

I love you, thank you so much! This video will help me pass Organic Chemistry II :)

Thank you so much Leah! Your explanation is so clear and makes everything much easier to understand! Keep up the good work! :)

Thank you so much! Great explanation, the colors helped so much.

I am a student studying in Korea🇰🇷 It was very helpful. thank you!!👏👏

thanks a ton...today i understood the exact reason for formation of a non classical carbocation...😘

I love your voice When she hit you with that "leah heerree"

very helpful for students! good job Miss Fisch

Thanks for the good explanation

everything makes sense now, thank you so much

hey leah i love you videos so much, they've been helping me to study a lot recently. can you make videos about alkene reactions ? thank you

Excellent so clear! Thank you so much!

Thanks for creating such a helpful video!! Could you explain where the lone pair on mercury comes from at 2:20? Thanks!

Wonderfully explained!

We just learned this. It was so confusing until now!

Very helpful congratulations madam 👍👍

just saved me from going nuts.!! thank you

I love your videos. So much help!! Thank you.

Thank you very much.

thanks leah

I can’t thank you enough I have subscribed and recommended you to others to subscribe too. Thanks so much

Am helped very much ❤❤

Thank you!

Thank you so much!!

thanku very much.... it was a great explanation... helped a lot...😊😊

at min 2:58, what do you mean that the positive charge on the carbon transferred to Hg, making it positive?

When we reducing with hydride, what the mechanism that happened? What makes the H placed the HgOAC ?

One thing thing you should explain is how the mercury is able to form a bond with the acetate while still having an inert lone pair. Confused me for days and have just been told that the bond between it and the acetate is actually between the 5d10 electron orbitals and not the 6s2's!

Woman this video is life.

In presence of Mercuric ion nucleophilic reaction occurs whether there is carbon carbon double bond. So why this reaction is known as electrophilic addition

What is the product formed when i carry out oxymercuration-demercuration hydration of a benzyl methyl ketone like 1-phenyl-3-butanone?

Thank you so much!

I had a quick question regarding these alkene reactions...are they all reversible?

Awesome video, thank you so much! I just have a question at 3:05, when you say that the carbons have a slight positive charge. Why is that? The electronegativity values of carbon (2.5) and mercury (1.9) tell otherwise... Or is it more like mercury "sharing" that positive charge through the bond?

where did the hg lone pair come from? at 2:38

why did HG go to the primary than secondary if the secondary is the more stable one

why the more substituted carbon has a bigger partial charge,and attracts the nucleophile.

in the end product should it be syn - hydration or not ? ( i mean the H in the same side as OH )

Where does acetate come from at 4:43 ?

super

your awesome
