The task of this article is to update, develop and introduce into scientific practice the method "mechanochemical recrystallization" in solid-phase systems with small additives liquid phase solvent precursors stabilize formed nanoparticles. essence shown using example mechanical activation S–AgNO3–NH4X system, where X = Cl, Br, I, addition dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), resulting mechanochemical sy...

We describe a simple, rapid methodology for the synthesis of water-stable iron oxide nanoparticles (IONPs) compatible with a variety of aqueous buffers, based on mechanochemical milling exchange of covalently bound surface ligands on pre-fabricated oleic acid-protected IONPs. Application of milling for IONP ligand exchange eliminates steps required for transforming hydrophobic into negatively c...

Environmentally friendly one-pot synthesis of amides, bis-amides and dipeptides by mechanochemical carbodiimide-mediated coupling of carboxylic acids and amines is described; high reaction yields and simple aqueous work-up allow for the clean, practical and fast preparation of a variety of compounds containing the amide bond from readily accessible reagents.

Two different site-specific cleavage mechanisms for copolymer micelles under ultrasound and redox were confirmed. The finding that ultrasound induced mechanochemical cleavage of central ester bonds can open up a new way in the design of novel ultrasound responsive copolymer micelles for drug release.

The F-ATPase of the bacterium Propionigenium modestum is driven by an electrochemical sodium gradient between the cell interior and its environment. Here we present a mechanochemical model for the transduction of transmembrane sodium-motive force into rotary torque. The same mechanism is likely to operate in other F-ATPases, including the proton-driven F-ATPases of Escherichia coli.

The two-step mechanochemical preparation of carbene-pyridine complexes of palladium and platinum is reported. The organometallic products, which represent a class of commercially available catalysts, are rapidly formed in excellent yield proving solvent-free synthesis to be a viable synthetic alternative even in the case of NHC-containing compounds.

A novel mechanochemical method was proposed to reconstruct quickly moisture-degraded HKUST-1. The degraded HKUST-1 can be restored within minutes. The reconstructed samples were characterized, and confirmed to have 95% surface area and 92% benzene capacity of the fresh HKUST-1. It is a simple and effective strategy for degraded MOF reconstruction.
