Video: "Resistente a las bases"

Organic Chemistry Music Video "Resistant to Base"

(video musical de química orgánica "Resistente a las bases")

siii, lo se, es muy de ñoños, pero son de esas cosas que las encontrás, y necesitás compartirlas por mas que nadie las quiera.

Aparte, va encadenado con la entrada anterior en la que conte que tube el parcial de organica
[ ver acá ].

Sería una parodia a la canción de Robert Palmer de 1985 "Addicted to Love".

Para verlo y poder escucharlo, recomiendo le pongan "Stop" a la radio del Blog que esta a la derecha (proporcionada por http://www.imeem.com/ para los que quieran hacerse una lista propia)

_________[Resistant to Base] ________

Your lights are on, but you're not home
You're in the lab, working alone.
Your synthesis is nearly done
Just add a chain to that carbon.
You can't wait to alkylate
But first you must deprotonate
You add a mole of LDA
To overcome that pKa

Whoa, you like to think it will react with the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't add enough
You know you're gonna have to face it, it's resistant to base.

You check pH, it's past fourteen
Your stirring bar is dissolving
The TLC shows no products
Another mole and then reflux!

With LDA, it won't react
Butyllithium just might abstract
That hydrogen that won't obey
Le Chatelier's communiqué

Whoa, you like to think it will react with the stuff, oh yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't add enough
You know you're gonna have to face it, it's resistant to base.

REFRAIN
Might as well face it, it's resistant to base. x5

Your sodium t-butoxide
And ammonium hydroxide
Your KOH and hydrazine
Push the pH beyond eighteen

REFRAIN

y bueh, como es mi costumbre, un par de imagenes de mi seleccion, esta vez, es el turno de Dave McKean (uno de mis favoritos)
