Description

https://joechem.io/videos/176 for video on jOeCHEM and attached worksheet + solution (below video on jOeCHEM aka the link) In this video, we'll finally look at how to synthesize Amino Acids. By taking an amide (especially one made via the Gabriel Synthesis) and combining it with a beta diester, we can reliably produce amino acids. This video features examples making alanine and serine, and while there is a lot of steps going on, we already know all the chemistry going on under the hood.
