Direct exfoliation of graphite with a porphyrin – creating functionalizable nanographene hybrids

Abstract

Exfoliation of graphite was achieved using a free-base porphyrin 1 resulting in an efficient fabrication of single-layer nanographene (NG)–1 hybrid platelets that can be further functionalized with other nanomaterials. The novel nanographene–porphyrin hybrids reveal efficient charge transfer in the excited state.
