Dr. Jennifer Kremsner, Anton Paar GMBH. "Accelerating Organic Synthesis without Microwaves." Division Room. Special talk.Abstract: Over the past several decades, microwave heating has proven to be a well-established method for reaction acceleration. But what exactly is the reason for this acceleration? Do we really need microwaves for enhancing reaction outcomes? This presentation will focus on both the existence of non-thermal microwave effects and an alternative solution for successful and convenient reaction acceleration without microwave-assistance.
