摘要
[GRAPHICS] By means of a two-layered ONIOM approach, we predict that sidewall epoxidation of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) with dioxiranes is viable. The SWNT epoxides thus produced could be precursors for further chemical modification of SWNTs, given the abundant and well-established chemistry of organic epoxides. This opens the door for routine chemical manipulation of SWNTs.
