It’s already midnight. I wish the person behind organic chemistry lose his sleep cycle 😁 Don’t get angry 😁😅

          For me it was the opposite. Classic chemistry: redox / pressure / temperature. Three dials and you’ll get what you want as long as the atoms are there.

          Compare to

          Here’s how glucose relates to the ADP/ATP cycle! It doesn’t work unless temperature is 37C ± 1C

            That’s biochem. O chem is is this reaction a substitution or replacement. Does this catalyst make a product in cis or trans orientation. Etc

            Gen chem had a lot of shit about molecular angles and types of bonds and polarity.

    My first school accepted a lot of folks and then weeded them out of the majors they were known for. Organic chem was the course that turned many science majors into history or english majors
