Description

General description

1-Pyrenecarboxylic acid (PCA) is a polyaromatic derivative that has an amphiphilic characteristic. It is a fluorophore that shows absorption spectra in the UV region. PCA has a carboxylic acid group that attaches with pyrene nucleus. It can be used as a sensitizer that facilitates the electron transport from one medium to another.

Application

Functionalized pyrene for synthesis.

PCA can be used in the surface modification of graphene and carbon nanotubes (CNTs), which can further be used for a variety of electronic applications.
