2.1 Elements of high-pressure physical chemistry

Empirical observation of the favorable effect of pressure on the kinetics of certain reactions goes back a long way . These techniques have been used in organic synthesis since the mid-1970s, thanks in particular to the pioneering work of William Dauben in the USA.

Pressure, like temperature, is a parameter that influences the equilibrium of a chemical reaction. The mathematical product of pressure and PV volume has the dimensions of energy. Consequently,...
