In this video, we discuss the following:<br/>
[1] beta oxidation pathway for a polyunsaturated fatty acid [lin<br/>oleic acid]
[2] the NADH and FADH2 yield per this pathway

Looking at the usage of beta-dicarbonyl compounds.

An introduction to the Wittig reaction.

Just as important as learning reactions that generate carbon-carbon bonds, we need ways to cleave carbon-carbon bonds as well.This is useful for splitting a molecule up into fragments, or transforming a cyclic molecule into a linear...

Once again, we will be interested in learning about reactions that break carbon-carbon bonds, as this will allow us to perform necessary transformations on substrates. The haloform reaction is one such reaction, and it is commonly used...
