Hey guys, today we are using a different method to make bromoalkane. The product from this video was originally meant to be used to make 1-octen-3-ol, but that pathway is dead.

Instead, I am using it to make caproic acid and that should be posted in the coming weeks.

The next video is aluminum isopropoxide

Making a Bromoalkane (1-bromopentane - NaBr/H2SO4 Method)

Today we are making a bromoalkane using the NaBr/H2SO4 method. In a previous video I did the PBr3 method, but this one is honestly a lot better (at least for 1-bromopentane).
