General description

1-Pyrenecarboxaldehyde (PCA) is a bifunctional molecule with pyrene moiety and one aldehyde group. The pyrene moiety interacts with the side walls of carbon nanotubes(CNT) through π-π stacking which leads to the uniform immobilization of PCA on the CNT surface. Therefore, it is widely used for the surface functionalization of CNTs. It can also be used to fabricate fluorescent chemosensors.

Features and Benefits

Exhibits reversible tuning properties with temperature and the properties depend upon the solvent environment.
