Don't you hate it when you are isolating a product in an organic phase from an aqueous phase (working in microscale) and you can't neutralize your acidity so you wash it over and over but in the course of the litmus test you use several drops of your organic phase and reduce the amount of your product (in this case 1-octanol) dramatically. Then you evaporate the solvent (dimethyl ether) and you end up with a horrible yeild, but a good refractive index. Then to top it off you get cocky and decide you don't need to use gloves and end up getting borane~tetrahydrofuran on your hand and end up with a few burns and a deep brown stain that will not fade for a month!
I thought I would post this since people post all sorts of madness about Chipotle and Cheetos. At least this has some sort of educational value.
I know Clovis hates it when his mom opens the door when he is "cleaning" his room

JESSE!!!! I found this place called Rancho Taco, they have the best tacos ever!!! They are so freakin' huge. The carnitas burrito is awesome too. I hate Chipotle. Here is a rule of thumb for all the burrito n00bs, If the place you are eating at does NOT have HORCHATA, GET THE FUCK OUT OF THERE!!!

I am trying to master reduction by hydroboration/oxidation. I started out with 1-octene and reduced it to 1-octanol. All organic reactions are a lot of work. The mechanism for this reduction/oxidation is no fun either.
