Abstract
Liquid 2,2,4-trimethylpentane (I), 1-octene (II), and di-n-butylsulfide (III) were subjected to plasma of oxygen. II and III were also treated dissolved in alkanes. Conversion rates increased with decreasing temperature, with increasing gas velocity, and, in the case of II, also with the addition of nitrogen or helium to the gas stream. The selectivity of product formation is far superior to plasma oxidations in the gas phase, making these techniques attractive for preparative chemistry.
