In my experience, this tends to be a reaction you need to know how to predict the product with, but I think the mechanism is hecking cool. So buckle up, because the reduction train is leaving the station. I've re-made this video (much better, in my opinion), but if you're looking for the original one, it's linked here: https://youtu.be/ctqHCpwWiaE
