Description

https://joechem.io/videos/153 for video on jOeCHEM and attached worksheet + solution (below video on jOeCHEM aka the link). In this video, we once again look at the benzylic position. Instead of oxidation, we'll take a trip down reduction lane. We'll see how we can use hydrogen gas to reduce the benzylic position when an ether is present.
