Chemical mechanics : Hydrogen‐bond‐driven self‐assembly and mechanochemistry are used to facilitate supramolecular catalysis in the solid state. Mortar‐and‐pestle grinding proves to be an efficient means to achieve co‐crystal formation and turnover using a physical mixture composed of an olefin and catalytic amounts of a ditopic template (see scheme).
