Abstract

A brief and systematic overview of recent advances in understanding the mechanism of mechanochemical cocrystallization at macroscopic (bulk phase transformations) and microscopic levels (molecular recognition) is given. The review particularly addresses neat and liquid-assisted grinding approaches to cocrystal formation.
