Abstract We introduce mechanochemical deracemization (MCDR) as a novel strategy for obtaining enantiopure compounds. This study demonstrates the successful transposition of six archetypical reactions from solvent‐based to solvent‐minimized ball milling environment. The scope includes ketone, isoindolinones, imines, an ester, and inorganic compound, all which deracemized successfully. Key parameters such material, number size, use bulk material liquid‐assisted grinding (LAG) were systematically investigated, revealing their crucial role. Quantitative enantiomeric excesses (ee) achieved, while reaction times reduced by up 97 % solvent consumption much 100 %. work establishes MCDR versatile, sustainable pathway By highlighting generalizability this approach its huge potential minimizing waste, provides foundation future advancements in deracemization.
