The approach is based on the incorporation of electroactive π-extended tetrathiafulvalene (exTTF) units into the triazole linkers to modulate the electronic properties of the obtained conjugates. The introduction of strain, by bending the planar graphene sheet into a 3D carbon framework, is responsible for the singular reactivity observed in carbon nanotubes. The formed nanoconjugates were fully characterized by analytical, spectroscopic, and microscopic techniques (TGA, FTIR, Raman, UV-Vis-NIR, cyclic voltammetry, TEM and XPS). In the case of SWCNT conjugates, where the functionalization degree is higher, a series of steady-state and time resolved spectroscopy experiments revealed a photoinduced electron transfer from the exTTF unit to the electron-accepting SWCNT.engjournal articlehttp://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlelanding/2015/nr/c4nr04365k#!divAbstractopen access547Aromatic compoundsCyclic voltammetryElectronic propertiesFourier transform infrared spectroscopyGrapheneIodineLaser spectroscopyMultiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCN)NanoconjugatesSynthesis (chemical)YarnQuímica orgánica (Química)2306 Química Orgánica
