Structure mistake
edityou forgot the nitrogen in the quinoline part of quinidine
- Thanks! for your remark, the structures were incorrect V8rik 21:19, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
Lay-reader intro/too technical
editSooo, what is this stuff? What's it used for? English descriptions? Maury 20:33, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
Hi Maury, I read some of you comments on Wikipedia talk:Wikipedia is failing and I disagree. Most what I have to say on this topic you will find on my user page and in addition to that I have to add that a group of chemists on WIki attempt to carry chemistry to advanced university level and that yes topics covered in wiki chemistry can get technical. There is really no point in starting each article at the bottom level (what is a molecule, what is a chemical reaction), but on the other hand each article carries links to relevant other articles. I do believe in a modular approach to wiki and these random pages will get you nowhere because you fall in the middle of a train of thought as you will. You should have arrived to this page from other pages like reagent or Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation or Dihydroquinine then this article will definitely make sense.
try this sequence: chemistry >> organic chemistry >> functional group >> alkene >> Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation >> AD-mix
See what I mean? you progress from general to technical but everything is explained to the last detail and even the AD-mix article makes sense. And there is no point in merging AD-mix with chemistry or any of the other higher level articles because then you clutter basic stuff with details.
Nevertheless I did some re-editing by your request, hope it helps. V8rik 21:30, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
