The battle between kinetic and thermodynamic control gives rise to the phenomenon of disappearing polymorphs, including a case that cost Abbott Laboratories millions. Mechanochemistry seems to hold an answer.

The disappearing polymorph of HIV drug ritonavir caused chaos for drug manufacturer Abbott Laboratories in the late 1990s. A new mechanochemistry method can recover the stable nuisance form by a 15-minute ball milling procedure.

In this field, mechanochemistry plays a role at the beginning of the supply chain: it’s applied in biomass pretreatment, to break the chemical linkages between its components, and prepare it for further chemical or biochemical reactions. ⛓️
