Tailoring the Properties of Functional Materials With N‐Oxides

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The properties of materials bearing N‐oxide groups are often dominated by the polar N+─O− bond. It provides hydrophilicity, selective ion‐binding, electric conductivity, or antifouling properties. Many of the underlying mechanisms have only recently been discovered, and the interest in N‐oxide materials is rapidly growing.

Diazo transfer at polydopamine

open access: yesPolym. Chem., 2014
The possibility of introducing azido functions onto polydopamine by diazo transfer making use of existing aminoethyl moieties was verified at polydopamine-coated magnetite nanoparticles. The resulting azidofunctionalized Fe3O4@polydopamine nanoparticles serve as a magnetic nano-platform for the introduction of interesting applicatory functions by click-
