fucking chemistry.
gawd what a long fucking day.
i am getting more and more sure that i will be going to grad school and eventually becoming a professor. hopefully a teaching professor, because the lab was not my friend today. my pants have 6 new holes in them from sulfuric acid. evil sulfuric acid. aside from getting sulfuric acid on my clothes, today jsut sucked for an entirely different reason...so i've been working on these reactions. well the reaction i've been working on since the beginning of the month was a really easy reaction, but it took me forever to isolate and purify it...so finally on wednesday i get a little bit of pure product. i try to do a reaction on it and it totally fails, not a little bit, but utterly and completely...meanwhile i finished purifying the rest of the first reaction. So today i try another way to do the reaction. And i do it, and it works! yay right? well, kinda, the reaction undid all the work i had done for the last week and a half. which is what i wanted to do (eventually) because the first reaction was just a protecting group and was gonna be removed anyways, but because it was removed my yield is gonna be at least half of what i want it to be, and i have a feeling that tommorow when i try to seperate and purify it i will have a very difficult time...argh...
i jsut realized that what i've just written probably doesn't make too much sence. especially if you haven't taken ochem
