Mechanochemical synthesis: New theory explains reaction rate acceleration

In contrast to conventional organic synthesis, mechanochemistry does not use solvents that eventually become industrial wastes. Thus, mechanochemistry is environmentally friendly and enables us to perform organic synthesis using reactants that poorly dissolve into common solvents. In contrast to conventional organic synthesis, mechanochemistry does not use solvents that eventually become industrial wastes.
