Abstract

The microwave-assisted functionalization of carbon nanohorns (CNHs) via [2+1] nitrenes cycloaddition, providing well dispersible hybrid materials possessing aziridino-rings covalently grafted onto the graphitic network of CNHs, was accomplished, while condensation of hydroxy-functionalized CNHs with thioctic acid, furnishing an endocyclic disulfide bond extended from the aziridino-rings, allowed the stabilization of Au nanoparticles.
