Abstract All organic molecules having similar ionization and dissociation energies, are sensitive to elevated temperatures and can easily be destroyed by plasma. Under selective experimental conditions, however, organic plasma chemistry can be a valuable synthetic method. Main areas of applications are the generation of reactive species, isomerizations, eliminations, cyclisations, condensations, and multistep reactions. During the last decade numerous preparative methods have been reported. These are summarized together with many unpublished results from the Tübingen laboratory. In addition reaction mechanisms, selectivities, kinetics, economics, possibilities, and limitations of organic plasma chemistry are discussed.
