This book provides informative, useful, and stimulating reading on
the topic of organic sonochemistry - the core of ultrasound-based
applications. Given the increasing interest in new and improved
technologies, allied to their green and sustainable character (not
always a valid premise), there is a great attraction for organic
chemists to apply these protocols in synthesis and process
chemistry. Unfortunately, as with other enabling technologies, many
researchers new to the field have received a simple and dishonest
message: just switch on! Therefore a significant portion of
sonochemical syntheses lack reproducibility (surprisingly
cavitation control and/or ultrasonic parameters are omitted) and
the actual role of sonication remains uncertain. While this book
does not provide a detailed description of fundamentals, the
introductory remarks highlight the importance of cavitational
effects and their experimental control. It presents a number of
concepts of sonochemical reactivity and empirical rules with
pertinent examples, often from classical and recent literature. It
then focuses on scenarios of current interest where organic
chemistry, and synthesis in particular, may benefit from sonication
in terms of both chemical and mechanical activation. The
"sustainable corner" of this field is largely exemplified through
concepts like atom economy, renewable sources, wasteless syntheses,
and benign solvents as reaction media. This book is useful for both
researchers and graduate students, especially those familiar with
the field of sonochemistry and applications of ultrasound in
general. However, it is also of interest to a broader audience as
it discusses the fundamentals, techniques, and experimental skills
necessary for scientists wishing to initiate the use of ultrasound
in their domain of expertise.
