The revealed H/D KIE highlights the importance of ionization processes for sonochemistry in line with recent studies of sonoluminescence spectroscopy. In addition, this research demonstrates the possibility to observe quantum tunneling in picosecond plasmas even at high temperature. Such transient plasmas can be produced not only by acoustic cavitation, but also by other processes, like picosecond electric discharge or picosecond laser ablation, which are intensively being investigated. Finally, we would like to emphasize that tunneling control of chemical reactions becomes so important in chemistry that it has recently been labeled “the third reactivity paradigm” next to kinetic and thermodynamic control.
