TLDR
Concentrating on recent advances, this article covers industrial aspects, inorganic materials, organic synthesis, cocrystallisation, pharmaceutical aspects, metal complexes, supramolecular aspects and characterization methods.Abstract:
The aim of this critical review is to provide a broad but digestible overview of mechanochemical synthesis, i.e. reactions conducted by grinding solid reactants together with no or minimal solvent. Although mechanochemistry has historically been a sideline approach to synthesis it may soon move into the mainstream because it is increasingly apparent that it can be practical, and even advantageous, and because of the opportunities it provides for developing more sustainable methods. Concentrating on recent advances, this article covers industrial aspects, inorganic materials, organic synthesis, cocrystallisation, pharmaceutical aspects, metal complexes (including metal–organic frameworks), supramolecular aspects and characterization methods. The historical development, mechanistic aspects, limitations and opportunities are also discussed (314 references).read more

Solution and Mechanochemical Syntheses of Two Novel Cocrystals: Ligand Length Modulated Interpenetration of Hydrogen-Bonded 2D 63-hcb Networks Based on a Robust Trimeric Heterosynthon
TL;DR: In this paper, a versatile organic tecton, 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethyl-4,4′-bipyrazole (tmbpz), with aliphatic dicarboxylic acid suberic acid and sebacic acid (H2sub) generates two supramolecular solids, and single-crystal structural analyses reveal that the 1 and 2 are 4fold and 5fold 2D → 2D parallel interpenetrated 63-hcb networks, respectively.
