Organic Mechanochemistry

Organic Mechanochemistry: A New Tool for Sustainable Synthesis presents the greener chemical method to a broader reading audience, including chemical practitioners. Descriptions of each method, followed by examples on sustainability aspects and applications give readers a better understanding and realization of its possibilities. Mechanochemistry, a nonconventional method for inducing the chemical reaction by application of mechanical energy in solid state, has been recognized as beneficial as mechanochemically conducted reactions hold diverse environmental sustainability advantages in manufacturing processes.

• Outlines the background of the field, as well as considerations of mechanochemistry
• Expands on green chemistry and sustainable chemistry
• Covers several examples of the implementation of the technique, from traditional organic synthesis to catalysis, cocrystals, and polymorphism to materials and polymers
