Abstract

Within the framework of this study, reactions between 7 aldehydes and 4 nitrogen bases were carried out in charged droplets. For this, an in-house built electrospray system was designed and built. For comparison, the same reactions were also carried out in bulk phase under similar conditions. The results show, that charged droplets are a new potent media for carrying out reactions, since the reactions were accelerated compared to bulk phase. Also, new reaction pathways may be found, as several new products were observed.
