Graphite oxide (GO) derived materials include chemically functionalize or reduced graphene oxide (exfoliated from GO) sheets, assembled paper-like forms , and graphene-based composites GO consists of intact graphitic regions interspersed with sp3-hybridized carbons containing hydroxyl and epoxide functional groups on the top and bottom surfaces of each sheet and sp2-hybridized carbons containing carboxyl and carbonyl groups mostly at the sheet edges. Hence, GO is hydrophilic and readily disperses in water to form stable colloidal suspensions Due to the attached oxygen functional groups, GO was used to prepare different derivatives which result in some physical and chemical properties that are dramatically different from their bulk counterparts .The present work discusses the covalent cross linking of graphite oxide to benzocaine or ethyl ester of para-aminobenzoic acid,structure I,used in many over-the-counter ointment drug.Synthesis is done via diazotization of the amino group.The product is characterized via IR,Raman, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy as well as electron microscopy. |
