Mechanochemistry: Working toward a sustainable future

Mechanochemistry offers fast reactions in a solvent-free environment. Mass productivities often exceed the solvent-based reaction equivalents, and the work-up procedures are generally easier. In this application note, explore how mechanochemistry has gained traction in different disciplines and it's advantages compared to solvent-based processes. Mechanochemistry has shown the ability to transfer staple reactions like C-C couplings, oxidations, reductions and pericyclic reactions into ball mills.
