Project Details
Choice of solvents for selective control of kinetics and thermodynamics of chemical reactions (A04)
Subject Area
Technical Thermodynamics
Term
from 2010 to 2021
Project identifier
Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 56091768
This subproject will combine quantum-chemical calculations of transition states and standard Gibbs energies of reaction with modeling the non-ideal interactions of reactants, products, and solvents using an equation of state (PC-SAFT). The combination of these two methods will allow predicting the solvent influence on the equilibrium and kinetics of chemical reactions and thus to choose the best-suitable solvent for a given reaction.
