Hello everyone! In this video, we will be brominating 1-pentanol using PBr3 that was made in a previous video. I will use the product, bromopentane, in a future video to make my biting insect attracting chemical.

I am going to try and edit all of my 1080p stuff and dump it all as fast as I can. There are 15 of them and I hope to drop them all in the next month or so.

I plan to do an FAQ video, so if you have any questions you'd like me to address in the video, leave them in the comments.
