SN2, SN1, E1, & E2 Reaction Mechanisms Made Easy - Full 94 Minute Video
🕑 Added 2021-02-24 00:32:43 +0000 UTCThis organic chemistry video tutorial provides a basic introduction into SN2, SN1, E1 and E2 reaction mechanisms. It provides a chart to determine which reaction mechanism will yield the major product given a particular alkyl halide or substrate. This video discusses the stereochemistry of some of the products as well as any carbocation rearrangements that may occur such as methyl shifts and hydride shifts. This video contains plenty of examples and practice problems.

Why don't we draw enantiomers for the first S1/E1 product (for the Sn1)?

Thank you so much for all of your videos. I study in Germany despite that your videos in English are an absolute blessing : )
