Mechanochemistry With Gaseous Reactants
While mechanochemistry traditionally involves reactions of solids or liquids, there's a burgeoning interest in utilizing gaseous reactants, an area that has been largely underexplored until recently. In our group, we're at the forefront of this emerging field, investigating the potential of mechanochemical reactions using gases in ball mills. Our work showcases examples where gases like hydrogen, oxygen, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide are activated by mechanical forces, opening up new possibilities in chemical synthesis.
Join us as we explore the fascinating intersection of mechanochemistry and gas-phase reactions, pushing the boundaries of chemical synthesis and paving the way for groundbreaking discoveries.
