@@MrPbhuh Every chemist knows that a journal in which you publish mistakes would be far more beneficial for the craft than all those 99%+ yields that are never reproducable.

Most people don't like science because they were taught it poorly, science sucks when it's just a bunch of giant words in a boring book and confusing diagrams with long, dry lectures. It generally tends to be a lot more fun in practice, chemistry basically lets you be like a chef only instead of making tasty foods you can make weird chemicals to play with and blow things up lol (safely of course)
@@GiraffeFlavored its significantly more complex than you're making it seem. Chemistry is like knowing every single pokemon, thier moves learned at each level for each generation, when they evolve, egg moves, height, weight, foot print type, egg category etc etc. Chemistry is ludicrously difficult to learn at a usable level
I honestly didn't think this video would come. A lot of videos saying "I'm making this chemical for my production of 1-octen-3-ol." But I didn't know if it would ever happen.
It's really nice that you show and explain the reaction mechanisms. It really adds to the understanding about what's happening, rather than just "I pour some of this in, then this happens"

Hi, and thanks for all the vids. I hated chem when I took it 40 years ago, but I love watching your projects (and seriously lusting after your lab glass). This particular bid was timely because I just deployed a 40W UV lamp zapper about 4 weeks ago in an area saturated by hurricane Harvey floods. The lamp on its own is moderately effective. I looked at adding an octenol cartridge, but these are just ridiculously expensive. My further looking at some articles also made me skeptical than octenol without a sustained release CO2 source would provide much incremental effectiveness. Based on my reading and local observation of insect behavior, I've just deployed a decidely low tech next step. It's a 500ml bottle 80% filled with a 1:1:1 mixture by vol of sugar, scrap sweet wine, and water with a tablespoon each of cornstarch, flour, and dry baking yeast. The bottle is placed adjacent to the zapper. If this seems to increase the zapper rate, I might experiment next with adding octenol to the mixture. My thought process is as follows: while female mosquitoes are attracted to the CO2/heat/octenol produced by mammals, both male and female mosquitoes are attracted to sweet liquids (nectars) for nutrition. While only the females bite, they only bite after they've bred. Hopefully attracting the breeding pair near the light will reduce the actual egg carrying female population. Secondly, fermenting yeast seems to be a very strong attractant for many flying insects. Third, it's just a hunch but I suspect octenol isn't the only alcohol compound that attracts. I've observed flying insects attracted to glasses of wine, wine that has degraded to vinegar, and to bottled fruit vinegars. I'll try to post my results here. Meanwhile, if anyone finds a source for sub cosmetic/food grade octenol, please share. I can get a 40kg barrel from China, but a couple of liters ought to last my lifetime.
I love how he always explains it like we are going to do it. There isn’t really another way to properly explain it WITHOUT sounding like a tutorial, but I still find it amusing
3:10 “ooh” I think “I wonder what the mechanism for that is, I bet it would be cool.” Spend ages googling *”Now I’m going to break it down mechanistically”* “Ah for fuck’s sake”
The MPV reduction does not achieve incredible yields, but try to mantain all the reactants solved in the solution (you can try to continously adding the aluminium isopropoxide "solved") to the reaction mixture. If you maintain the products in the solution, you just have to displace the equilibria by distilling the corresponding ketone. You can also try with sec-butanol as a solvent, its higher boiling point may favor the reaction. The recovery of aluminium can be also made by using a saturated aqueous solution of oxalic acid, where aluminium oxalate/hydroxyde precipitates out during the phase separation. KEEP GOING!
Loved the video. You saying "the remaining XY is washed with a little bit of Toluene" is as soothing as Bob Ross saying "now we'll put a few happy little trees there"

This is the stuff that comes with bug zappers, there are little fabric tabs that come with it, soaked in octenol, that supposedly attract bugs to the zapper.
Thanks for inspiring me to review my organic chemistry, I'm taking up chemical engineering and I've already forgotten everything just 2 terms after my last organic chemistry subject. I seriously had to pick up my book and re-read about aldol reaction mechanisms. The alpha-carbon of one ketone attaches itself to the carbonyl group of the other carbon in basic conditions
What were the reasons that 1-octen-3-ol was believed to be an attractant of biting insects before the research showed that there was no major difference between traps baited with it and traps not baited with it?
Well form what I understand it's the same sent humans give of that attracts insects/mosquitto's so, even though they do the same the point was attracting them with a scent that they follow naurally, also, the report says that it would be a lot more potent if you combined both the trap and the 1 octen 3 ol together
When bubbled with CO2 it becomes misted/airborne, making it a airborne scent for those pesky bugs to find. much better then just coating a trap with it.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching the whole process (precursor videos too). Feel a bit sorry for you and want to give you a big hug,. Even if you didn't attract any bugs in the end, it was all worth while because of the great videos. :)
Hey Red, I got an idea for a video I'd enjoy seeing. I recently read that _n-halosaccharins_ can act as convenient substitutes for n-halosuccinimdes in some reactions. From what I've read I think they could potentially be quite useful to us hobbyists due to their versatility, ease of preparation and favourable safety profile. I'd love seeing you try to replace N(X)S with the corresponding halosaccarin in some halogenation reaction.
I think this was mentioned in a later video but the dehydration step in aldol condensation follows an E1cb mechanism, which means that after the acidic proton is deprotonated on the beta-hydroxy ketone, the negative charge again moves to the oxygen of the ketone, then reforms the carbonyl and the double bond by pushing of a hydroxide. You can probably think of it like a reverse 1,4-conjugated addition.
Don't you think that using column chromatography would be better to fractionate reaction mixtures than vacuum distillation? Btw nice channel, a lot of chemistry knowledge is coming from your videos 😉
You've gotta be attached to an institution or a company to order stuff from them and I don't know if he's allowed to order reactants for private use through his workplace... I'd reckon the answer is no.
5:24 although more expensive, lithium di-isopropylamide (LDA), or sodium hydride (NaH) could be used to quantitatively deprotonate the ketone, preventing self-aldol. Dont know if the yield benefits would justify the added cost in this scenario though
