Supramolecular Recognition of Synthetic Carbon Allotropes (A07)

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The effective non-covalent recognition of Synthetic Carbon Allotropes (SCAs) poses a considerable challenge to the supramolecular chemist, because these organic materials are partially polydisperse, lack heteroatoms and are inherently apolar or curved. In project A7, we will develop innovative concepts and compounds for the supramolecular recognition and functionalization of fullerenes (with strained carbon “nanohoops”; work package 1), single-walled carbon nanotubes (with dynamic covalent macrocycles; work package 2) and graphene edge defects (with bis-amidinium molecular wires; work package 3).
