Abstract
The paper is devoted to study of the plasma-activated synthesis of organic compounds with optically activity. Synthesis was carried out in plasma-liquid system with a rotating gliding discharge submerged in a liquid. The initial reagents of synthesis were ethanol, ammonia, and CO2. The possibility of the influence of the electric field direction on the optical activity of the products of plasma-activated synthesis is shown.
Highlights
Throughout the fifty-year history of the intensive development of plasma chemistry, one of the main areas of its research has been the synthesis of both organic and inorganic substances

It has been shown that the use of isothermal plasma in combination with rapid quenching of the plasma composition when the temperature changing at a rate of 107–108 K s−1 and non-equilibrium conditions can be effective in the synthesis
Summary
Throughout the fifty-year history of the intensive development of plasma chemistry, one of the main areas of its research has been the synthesis of both organic and inorganic substances. As in conventional chemistry, the problem of chiral synthesis of nonchiral substances remains unsolved. The solution to this problem can have significant implications for plasma applications (agroplasma, plasma medicine, pharmacology, the food industry, etc.) [3, 4]. That is why the chemical synthesis of chiral isomers from non-chiral starting reagents results only in a racemic mixture of chiral isomers (50% right/50% left). A possible cause of the racemate mixture may be the quasi-equilibrium nature of the chemical processes and, provided that all directions of the translational and rotational motion of the molecules of the reagents are equal
