General description

1-Pyreneacetic acid is a negatively charged pyrene derivative. It has been proposed as titrating reagent for the standardization titration of Grignard reagents and n-butyl lithium (n-BuLi).

Application

1-Pyreneacetic acid is suitable for use in the following studies:
  • Synthesis of N-(2-(methylthio)ethyl)-2-(pyren-1-yl)acetamide, a pyrene amide based Pd2+ probe.
  • Synthesis of pyrene-modified β-cyclodextrin.
  • To functionalize single walled carbon nanotube field effect transistors (CNT FETs).
  • As an agent for characterizing grafting degrees and reactivity of the ester functionalized polypropylenes.
  • Synthesis sawhorse-type diruthenium tetracarbonyl complexes.
  • Synthesis of (±)-2-(1-pyrenyl)propionic acid, a chiral carboxylic acid.
  • Reversible noncovalent functionalization of single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs).
  • Preparation of peptide nucleic acid (PNA) probes.
  • As an internal reference compound in the assessment of solid phase reaction by HPLC-UV.

An effective purification method for single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) based on a combination of oxidative acid treatment and reversible noncovalent functionalization with 1-pyreneacetic acid is reported. The functionalization was selective toward the nanotubes, allowing a nearly complete removal of residual
