Abstract
Graphene sheets derived from dispersion of graphite in pyridine were functionalised by the 1,3 dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylide. The organically modified graphene sheets are easily dispersible in polar organic solvents and water, and they are extensively characterised using several spectroscopic and microscopy techniques.Keywords
