Mechanochemistry of inorganic and organic systems: what is similar, what is different?

E.V. Boldyreva

Short summary

Mechanochemistry is increasingly used for greener organic synthesis, but researchers often rediscover known facts and neglect important concepts, highlighting a need for a unified understanding across inorganic and organic systems.

Key points

  • Mechanochemistry is a recognized method for inorganic solid reactions.
  • Mechanical treatment is increasingly adopted for selective and greener organic syntheses.
  • Newcomers to mechanochemistry often rediscover known facts and neglect established concepts.
  • A unified understanding of mechanochemical principles across inorganic and organic systems is needed.

Abstract

Mechanochemistry of inorganic solids is a well-established field. In the last decade mechanical treatment has become increasingly popular as a method for achieving selective and "greener" syntheses also in organic systems. New groups and researchers enter the field of mechanochemistry, often re-discovering many of the previously known facts and effects, while at the same time neglecting other important concepts. The author of this contribution has long been involved in mechanochemical research in both inorganic and organic systems. The aim of this contribution is to provide an overview of the basic concepts of mechanochemistry in relation to inorganic and organic systems.
