Description

Covalent functionalization of graphene significantly broadens
its application potential via tuning its electronic and
surface properties.1,2 Therefore, a wide range of dry and wet
chemistry approaches have been developed for graphene
functionalization.3−7 Despite recent progress in this field,
covalent modification of graphene is still hampered by its low
reactivity. Moreover, the reactivity depends on the type of
graphene support8,9 and number of graphene layers.10−12
Consequently, there is a need for new strategies that permit
high yielding graphene functionalization under more controlled
conditions.
