It is counterintuitive that chemical reactions can be accelerated by freezing, but this amazing phenomenon was discovered as early as the 1960s. In frozen systems, the increase in reaction rate is caused by various mechanisms and the freeze concentration effect is the main reason for the observed acceleration. Some accelerated reactions have great application value in the chemistry synthesis and environmental fields; at the same time, certain reactions accelerated at low temperature during the storage of food, medicine, and biological products should cause concern. The study of reactions accelerated by freezing will overturn common sense and provide a new strategy for researchers in the chemistry field. In this review, we mainly introduce various mechanisms for accelerating reactions induced by freezing and summarize a variety of accelerated cryochemical reactions and their applications.

Rate coefficients of bi-molecular chemical reactions are fundamental for kinetic models. The rate coefficient dependence on temperature is commonly extracted from the analyses of the reaction minimum energy path. However, a full dimension study of the same reaction may suggest a different asymptotic low-temperature limit in the rate constant than the obtained from the energetic profile.
