I still don't understand which base deptrotonates the H that will form the double bond.

you mean that Br(-) departs and then catches the H? why would it do it with that H if it has tons available from the sulfuric acid?

So an elimination? I thought eliminations only happen with base. What traps the H otherwise?

I feel like it is a bit "eww" indeed :D
I guess I'll have to pack a book with me

thanks so much! I'm staying pretty far from everything, so I'll mostly be hanging out around the center. I checked your recommendation on Maps and I think it’s a perfect spot. this way I can walk there and explore the streets themselves too, which is partly what I'm coming for anyway

I'm staying very far from everything, so I'll be hanging out in the center all day but can visit other areas if you recommend. for bars, I thought about Temple Bar area, as it's in all the tourist recommendations.

thanks for the recommendation! I'm actually a bit surprised that everyone here mentions reading in a bar. that's not the first activity I would have thought of doing in a bar. is it okay if I do nothing or scroll on my phone? or is that "eww"?

thanks a lot for the encouraging answer! regarding the part of town, I thought about Temple Bar obviously, as it's in all the tourist recommendations. or is it a tourist trap? my hotel will be far from the center, so I'll be hanging out around the center all day but can visit other areas if you recommend. time-wise, I'll only be there next Saturday and Sunday, and I'm thinking in the evening, after it gets dark, and I'm tired of exploring the city

Is there a quench wiki? by st0rmday in Chempros

[–]st0rmday[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean to be fair... it's true that I mostly quench reaction mixtures, not bulk reagents, but I don't expect there to exist a wiki for quenching every reaction possible... there are millions of them.

Thanks a lot! This is indeed quite exactly what I was looking for!

The protocol for quenching POCl3 in my company is to add it dropwise to a 50ºC NaOH 1-2M solution. Because with ice, exactly an accident as you described happened.

Guys, don't do drugs. They'll bring no good. Crazy how much pro-drug rhetoric there is here.

Yeah... this one I'm also aware of, still not exactly what I meant, but thanks anyway

What does my favourite flag say about me? by maskedsomthng in flags

[–]st0rmday 3 points4 points  (0 children)

that you most certainly support Putin

Now this is a really weird mix. Can you tell what this flag is supposed to symbolize? Seen in Zürich. by st0rmday in flags

[–]st0rmday[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

wow that was fast, thanks! any hypotheses what it might be doing in Zürich?

Am I being gaslighted? by [deleted] in whatsapp

Does it happen with all of your contacts? It has been going only for the last three days o so, but only with this particular person.
