For carbon nanotubes, organosoluble PS-SWCNT nanocomposites [292] have been prepared that could be efficiently transformed to highly hydrosoluble, pH-responsive materials via direct sulfonation of the grafted PS chains [296]. In another approach, MWCNT-C H was clicked with azide-functionalized poly(glycerol methacrylate) and the final hairy MWCNTs were used for the in situ synthesis and immobilization of monodisperse 3 nm-sized palladium nanoparticles. The final heterostructure had a high catalytic activity (77%) for the C-C coupling Suzuki reaction between 4-bromobenzene and phenyl boronic acid [293],...
