SCROLL TO TOP

3.1.1 Possible activation of the reaction

In organic chemistry and catalysis, microwave heating often results in increased yields and selectivity, with shorter reaction times. Several reasons have been put forward to explain these specific effects, but to date they remain in the form of hypotheses and are more or less controversial:

  • the existence of microscopic hot spots. They would develop when molecules collide with each other,...
