Abstract

Electrochemically reduced graphite in contact with tetralkylammonium ions/DMF may react with electrophiles either as a nucleophile or as a reducing reagent. The reaction at the interface or at the immediately accessible active centres of the crystal causes some modification of the structure, which is studied here. This method allows the formation of polybutylated or poly-carboxylated graphite and may lead to other modified crystals of great interest for building modified electrodes.
