Orgo thread
Discuss Organic Chemistry and shit
Draw some hexagons
Panic when you see non hexagonal cycles
Panic when you see epoxides
Panic in general
lets go

First you learn some techniques: tlc, column chromatography, acid/base extraction, distillation.

Then you carry out whatever reactions your instructor likes/picks from a lab manual someone else forced on them/found in J. Chem. Educ./the stockroom has materials for/the department can afford and has equipment for.

>>	Anonymous Sun May 15 17:03:36 2016 No.8076673 >>8076626 >will form epoxides obviously i know that know. fuck the only way I learned was using RCO3H and NaOH

>>	Anonymous Sun May 15 17:24:36 2016 No.8076748 >>8076673 >RCO3H but that includes mCPBA

>>	Anonymous Sun May 15 19:06:40 2016 No.8077032 >>8076363 Why?

in short...

-too much competition in academia
-too much competition for jobs
-too much work in grad school
-i hope you like working with white/yellow/brown substances for the rest of your life
-little to no quantitative knowledge (math, physics, etc)
-employers will fuck and chuck you once they use you for their project / your salary gets too high so they just hire another one of the army of PhDs in line behind you for less.

chemistry is just a bad field to be in right now.
