CHAPTER 9. New and Up-and-coming Perspectives for Unconventional Chemistry: From Molecular Synthesis to Hybrid Materials by Mechanochemistry

Abstract

In recent years, research on enabling energy sources capable of promoting chemical reactions with low environmental impact and useful to drive the development of innovative, green, and sustainable processes has been continuously growing. We report herein selected examples based on the use of mechanochemistry as a valid and reliable alternative to chemistry in solution for the preparation of pharmaceutical materials, active co-crystals, or hybrid nanoparticles.
