Abstract

We provide a brief overview of recent advances in the use of mechanochemical techniques for the synthesis of organic molecules and materials, highlighting selected examples of mechanochemical organic transformations and mechanistic studies, and especially those that illustrate chemical reactions or syntheses of molecular targets that have remained elusive to conventional solution techniques.
