Ball-milling organic transformations

Mechanical mixing via high-energy ball-milling is a sustainable experimental technique, which is generally used for the preparation of metal hydrides and other organometallic materials.Recently, it has also been used in organic synthesis and some important transformations are reviewed in this section. 

Mechanically Induced Organic Transformations in a Ball-mill... 

H2PC) was transformed by ball milling into the X-H2PC form (diameter of particles, 80 nm). A mixture of 2.3% x-HjPc and 1.5% polymer (polycarbonate, polyvinylacetate, polyvinylcarbazole) in methylenechloride was cast onto Nesa glass (method Al). Then a metal film was evaporated onto the organic film. Table 7 describes the composi-...
