Covalent surface functionalization of multiwalled carbon nanotubes through bergman cyclization of enediyne-containing dendrimers

A method for covalent functionalization of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was developed using the free radicals generated through Bergman cyclization of enediyne-containing compounds. Four enediyne-bearing Frechet type dendrimers were synthesized in good quantities and characterized. Then, the enediyne-containing molecules were reacted with MWCNTs in N-methyl-2- pyrrolidinone at 206 °C under nitrogen. The structure and morphology of the resulting products were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The dendrimer- functionalized MWCNTs showed good solubility/dispersibility in common organic solvents and polymer solutions. They were used in the formation of polymer composites through electrospinning with polycaprolactone. The results confirmed the surface functionalization of MWCNTs.
