Fluorination of Single-Wall Carbon Nanotubes and Subsequent Derivatization Reactions
Abstract
This Account focuses on the most recent and systematic efforts in the area of functionalization chemistry of the single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) which utilizes direct fluorination for the preparation of "fluoronanonotubes" and their subsequent derivatization. The results obtained prove that the addition of fluorine drastically enhances the reactivity of the nanotube side walls. The use of this strategy as a versatile tool for preparation and manipulation of SWNTs with variable side-wall functionalities has been demonstrated. The functionalized SWNTs have shown an improved solubility in selected solvents and significantly altered electrical, mechanical, and optical properties. An overview of new synthetic methods for preparation and a discussion of characterization data for the functionalized SWNTs are provided.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
