Double- and Single-Sided bis-Functionalization of Graphene

Abstract

For the first time bis-functionalization of graphene employing two successive reduction and covalent bond formation steps are reported. Both bulk functionalization in solution and functionalization of individual sheets deposited on surfaces have been carried out. Whereas in the former case attacks from both sides of the basal plane are possible and can lead to strain-free architectures, in the latter case, retro-functionalizations can get important when the corresponding anion of the addend represents a sufficiently good leaving group.
