Mechanochemical reactions sometimes give different yields from those under solvent conditions, and such mechanochemical reactivities depend on the reactions. This study theoretically elucidates what governs mechanochemical reactivities, taking the Diels-Alder reactions as an example. Applying mechanical force can be regarded as the deformation of molecules, and the deformation in an orthogonal direction to a reaction mode can lower the reaction barrier. Here, we introduce a dimensionless cubic force constant, a mechanochemical reaction constant. It tells us how easily the deformation can lower a reaction barrier and enables us to compare the mechanochemical reactivities of different reactions. The constants correlate positively with the yields of the mechanochemical Diels-Alder reactions.
