Abstract
Presented herein is an exploration into mechanochemical techniques for organic synthesis. Mechanochemistry is an exciting tool where mechanical energy is used to enable reactivity via the impact of balls within a jar. It has recently gained increased interest due to the unique solvent free reaction set-up. Currently, from a sustainability perspective, organic synthesis can be an incredibly wasteful endeavour that must be improved to ensure more sustainable working practices. In this report, three distinctive areas have been targeted to either uncover a new process or improve on reactions that are frequently used in the chemical industry.
