TosMIC, Bredereck's Reagent, Eschenmoser's salt, and N-hydroxymethyl phthalimide - what do all of these reagents have in common? They are all able to do some powerful carbon-nitrogen chemistry. In this video, I discuss some of the most relevant reagents for carbon-nitrogen chemistry.
Interested in synthetic consulting? Get in touch! More info at the end of the video. Interested sponsors are also encouraged to reach out. I am basically at capacity for consulting clients at the moment, but if you have a project which you deem as interesting, still reach out - I wanna hear about it.
Important Papers covers various chemical reactions, mechanisms, and research papers in the field of organic chemistry, providing examples and explanations for each research paper.
