Abstract
Recently, mechanical milling using a mixer mill or planetary mill has been fruitfully utilized in organic synthesis under solvent-free conditions This review article provides a comprehensive overview of various solvent-free mechanochemical organic reactions, including metal-mediated or -catalyzed reactions, condensation reactions, nucleophilic additions, cascade reactions, Diels–Alder reactions, oxidations, reductions, halogenation/aminohalogenation, etc The ball milling technique has also been applied to the synthesis of calixarenes, rotaxanes and cage compounds, asymmetric synthesis as well as the transformation of biologically active compounds

Mechanochemistry and organic synthesis: from mystical to practical

TL;DR: For a review of the state-of-the-art in mechanochemistry, see, e.g., this article, the review presented in this paper. But, there still remains some mystique guarding the "rules" of mechanochemistry.

Cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC): exploring C-C bond formations beyond functional group transformations.

TL;DR: This work over the past several years to form carbon-carbon bonds directly from two different C-H bonds under oxidative conditions, cross-dehydrogenative coupling (CDC) is described, which provides an alternative to the separate steps of prefunctionalization and defunctionsalization that have traditionally been part of synthetic design.
