The application of solid‐state techniques such as ball milling has enabled the development of mechanochemical C−H bond functionalization. Up to now, mostly transition metals have been used to activate C−H bonds. However, as highlighted in the frontispiece, more strategies (e.g., more earth‐abundant metals) are approaching the scenario of mechanochemical C−H bond activation, and are anticipated to expand the scope of this concept complementing the traditional solution‐based synthetic approaches. For more details, see the Concept article by J. G. Hernández on page 17157 ff.
