Your precision of explanation is direct and to the point, your timing is perfect and well paced with no boring lulls or rushed zone-outs, and your warmth toward you students is expressed by your overall professional and positive attitude. We students are very lucky you are here. Many, many thanks Leah!
Geanella Vera says
Love your videos and the way you teach, Leah! I am wondering why you called the benzene a substituent during 6:32 in the video. I thought that would be the parent chain.

Thanks Leah4sci- coming from someone who has no science background, these videos were the best i’ve watched. So clear and move at a good pace. Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!
Leah4sci says
Thank you! Glad you enjoy them
niharika says
In anethole , propene is taken as substituent group (ie as propenyl) in place of phenyl group , while iupac name of styrene is phenylethene where benzene ring is substituent group .So in first case priority is given to benzene ring while in other priority is given to double bond . Pls explain ma’am .. I am a bit confused
Leah4sci says
Styrene is not an IUPAC name. It is an accepted common name
niharika says
But phenylethene is an IUPAC name where benzene is treated as substituent group.But opposite in case of anethole …
