The review highlights how experiments, molecular dynamics simulations, and quantum chemical calculations provide insights into mechanochemical activation, and emphasizes the need for integrated multiscale approaches to bridge macroscopic forces with molecular-scale reactivity.

I’m happy to share that our review article has been published in Chemical Reviews as part of the special issue on Mechanochemistry and Strain.

In this work, we discuss how mechanical forces distort molecular structures and alter reaction coordinates, ultimately activating chemical reactions.

Our recent collaborative study examines how strain influences the surface electronic properties of Mo₂C.

For complementary DFT results on different Mo₂C surfaces, refer to our previous study: https://t.co/llB5rKnpIm

Happy to share our manuscript with @goestlich has been published on @J_A_C_S where we show it is possible to alter a mechanophore and have both high thermal stability and mechanochemical reactivity in parallel. Check out the details of our work here: https://t.co/IyfhyFUGNb
