Special Physical Chemistry Seminar: Understanding Accelerated Chemical Reactions in Electrosprays and EmulsionsNumerous reports on dramatically accelerated organic reactions in aqueous electrosprays1-6 and emulsions7-8 have appeared in the last decade. While the causative role of “interfaces†has been invoked, rigorous mechanistic insights remain elusive. Specifically, it is unclear if the “interfacial effects†are limited to dangling hydrogen bonds, interfacial tensions, and curvature ...
