DESCRIPTION:Prof. Richard N. Zare\nStanford University\nDepartment of Chem
 istry\nMy research group has been studying chemical reactions in microdrop
 lets and comparing the findings with the behavior of the same reaction in 
 bulk solution.  Our detection method has been a high-resolution mass spec
 trometer.  Two different experimental setups are employed\, one involving
  fusing together two streams of microdroplets (shown in Fig. l\, the panel
  on the left)\, the other simply involving desorption electrospray ionizat
 ion (shown in Fig\, 1\, the panel on the right). One significant advantage
  of investigating reactions in microdroplets is that this technique allows
  us to detect and identify fleeting intermediates in complex reactions.  
 Another special feature of microdroplet chemistry is that the rates of som
 e reactions can be accelerated by a factor of 1000 or more.  This talk is
  intended to be of interest to all types of chemists.
