Solventless mechanochemical synthesis represents a technique with improved sustainability metrics compared to solvent-based processes. Herein, we describe a methodical process to run one solventless reaction directly into another through multistep mechanochemistry, effectively amplifying the solvent savings. The approach has to consider the solid form of the materials and compatibility of any a...

Abstract The transition to green chemistry and biodegradable polymers is a logical stage in the development of modern chemical science technology. In framework this review, advantages, disadvantages, potential synthetic natural origin are compared using example polylactide chitosan as traditional representatives these classes polymers, possibilities their combination via obtaining composite mat...

Polymorphs of the dichloro derivative of N-salicylideneaniline exhibit mechanical responses such as jumping (Forms I and III) and exploding (Form II) in its three polymorphs. The molecules are connected via the amide N-H⋯O dimer synthon and C-Cl⋯O halogen bond in the three crystal structures. A fourth high-temperature Form IV was confirmed by variable-temperature single-crystal X-ray diffractio...
