The large-scale preparation of graphene is of great importance due to its potential applications in various fields. We report herein a simple method for the simultaneous exfoliation and reduction of graphene oxide (GO) to reduced GO (rGO) by using alkynyl-terminated dopamine as the reducing agent. The reaction was performed under mild conditions to yield rGO functionalized with the dopamine derivative. The chemical reactivity of the alkynyl function was demonstrated by post-functionalization with two thiolated precursors, namely 6-(ferrocenyl)hexanethiol and 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecanethiol. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, UV/Vis spectrophotometry, Raman spectroscopy, conductivity measurements, and cyclic voltammetry were used to characterize the resulting surfaces. Modified graphene oxide: A simple method has been developed for the simultaneous exfoliation and reduction of graphene oxide (GO) to reduced GO (rGO) by using alkynyl-terminated dopamine as the reducing agent. The reaction was performed under mild conditions to yield rGO functionalized with the dopamine derivative (see figure). The chemical reactivity of the alkynyl function was demonstrated and the surfaces of the rGO characterized by a variety of techniques. Copyright
