Abstract
Surface interactions of graphene oxide (GO) and graphene are presented in this review. This work is intended to complement previous reviews of graphene oxide chemistry as well as detail the newest efforts in this growing field. GO holds great promise as both a starting material for 2-D materials and as a platform for chemical reactions, and in both cases potential applications for these materials continue to increase. This work seeks to highlight reactions that promote attachment of different moieties and that “tune” the surface energies of GO that may enhance local interactions.
Keywords: Functionalization, graphene, graphene oxide, nanoparticles, transparency, wetting.

Catalytic C-H bond activation as a tool for functionalization of heterocycles
The major topic is the functionalization of heterocycles through catalyzed C-H bond activation. The strategies based on C-H activation not only provide straightforward formation of C-C or C-X bonds but, more importantly, allow for the avoidance of pre-functionalization of one or two of the cross-coupling partners. The beneficial impact of ...read more
