Plasmochemical Synthesis of Optically Active Substances

This work is devoted to the study of optical activity (rotation of the polarization plane of light by matter) of organic synthesis in a plasma-liquid system with a rotating gliding discharge submerged in a liquid. The initial reagents of synthesis were ethanol, ammonia, and CO2. The possibility of plasma-chemical synthesis of an optically active substance when all the starting reagents are not active in the synthesis is shown.

Automated summary

This study focuses on the optical activity of organic synthesis in a plasma-liquid system with a rotating gliding discharge submerged in a liquid. It demonstrates the possibility of plasma-chemical synthesis of an optically active substance even when all starting reagents are inactive in the synthesis.
