Functionalization of nanoscale articles including nanotubes and fullerenes

摘要: The present invention generally provides compositions including carbon- containing molecules, and related methods. In some cases, the relates to aromatic molecules comprising functional groups bonded portion of molecule, nonplanar portions molecules. Methods may provide ability introduce a wide range methods be performed using relatively mild reaction conditions, such as low temperature, pressure, and/or in absence strong acids or bases. facile modular approach synthesizing that useful various applications photovoltaic devices, sensors, electrodes (e.g., for electrocatalysis).
