NMR Analysis of Synthesized Organic Compounds for Modification of Nanostructures.
EMSL Project ID
6893
Abstract
Nanostructured materials such as carbon nanotubes and mesoporous silica may be imparted with desired chemical selectivity and functionality through the use of attached organic functional groups. The success of efforts to synthesize these tailored organic compounds must be verified before they can be deposited on or attached to the surface of the nanostructured material. Basic proton and Carbon-13 NMR spectroscopies provide essential information in the determination of the structures of newly-synthesized novel organic compounds for use in the functionalization of multi-scale nanostructured materials.
