Abstract:Fluorous chemistry has unique features and high potential applicability, which are distinct from those of nonfluorinated organic compounds. However, there are limited reports detailing the applications of fluorous−fluorous interactions (fluorophilicity or fluorous affinity), likely because these interactions are not found in nature. In the present study, we describe the rewritable surface functionalization of a plastic substrate based on fluorous affinity. Plastic substrates were dip-coated with a series of me… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
