Organic chemistry is the master race STEM subject

Fuck organic chemistry

t. Chemical engineer who made the mistake of taking organic mechanisms and espectrometry.

Applied physics are the master race STEM.
So mainly thermodynamics, electricity and materials.

Green rush baby.
Biochem technician 100k starting bitch

>>9039059
As someone in applied physics, I agree

>Casual engineer lacking brain power
How very predictable

What are my fellow organic chemist working on? Im currently doing a project on glycol donors in hydrogen flouride.

More than brain power is interest. I personally find advanced organic boring. But you know, whatever tickles your fancy.

But what I said about applied phisics is objectively true. Thankfully you go over all of those in Chem Eng.

The equations and logic that I prove form the required chemical formulas for the lubricant you must use to finger your asshole while you convince yourself that your field is "pure".

I find pure methematics to be the most enjoyable. In terms of jobs prospects I'd fall for computer science meme, it's quite boring to be software engineer though

But can you do organic photochemistry reaction mechanisms?

Regioselective Synthesis of 2-Vinylanilines

>tfw you learn even LESS math than engineers and physics majors
how does it feel to not know what a double integral even is?

>>9039077
With msc or bsc?

>>9039077
i bought a terpenoid chemistry book and im lovin it

>>9040388
shoot those cyclization cascades over me daddy

>>9040539

What's it like?

>>9040412

That sounds master race compared to most math lol

>>9040602
its awesome, very thorough and fascinating. plants are master chemists

im trying to get into medschool
i just started learning chemistry, i really love it. any tips?

>tfw pharmacy undergraduate looking to get master's and phd on OChem

feels nice bros

>>9040865
Learn the underlying chemical concepts and logic. Brute force memorization will only fuck you over

Who is that girl and why is she so impressed?
Do you have the source video so I can further analyze this?
Thank you.

>>9041546
She is impressed by the large molecules he is building!

>>9041424

Sauce NAO!

Is she reading the book on terpenoids too?

On paper, synthetic organic chemistry is really cool. There's a beauty to the design of organic compounds, especially ones requiring multi-step syntheses. It's even better when a new mechanism is discovered that compacts a lot of steps to just a couple.

That being said, it's a pain in the ass to manage in the lab. I don't want to be doing an 8 step synthesis, no matter the yield. Catalysis is the way to go, although yes, it does limit the structural complexity of the molecule you wish to design, and you almost always have to cast a wide net in terms of trying out shittons of substrates.
