Grinding the way to enantiopurification

Inspired by the similarities between intermolecular recognition for chiral separation and the role of these same interactions in the solid state, in this issue of Chem, Puccetti et al. have identified a poten-tially transformative route for purifying enantiomers using a simple ball milling procedure.
