Sustainable Mechanosynthesis of Biologically Active Molecules
Mechanochemistry contributes to the sustainable preparation of molecules in many areas of chemistry. This Review focuses on the mechanosynthesis of known APIs and biologically evaluated new entities (medicinal mechanochemistry), mostly heterocycles, metal complexes, and peptides. Abstract Synthetic mechanochemistry, the use of mechanical force produced
