Staudinger Vilarassa reaction versus Huisgen reaction for the control of surface hydrophobicity and water adhesion

Description

Surface modifications are key for a great number of applications. In order to perfectly control the surface properties, it is important to control the modification pathways. Two general pathways can be described in order to introduce modification on surfaces: the post- and the ante- strategies. In this work, we focus on the comparison between the Huisgen and the Staudinger Vilarrasa reaction for both post- and ante- surface modifications. Here we focused on the possibility to use both two reactions to get superhydrophobic and oleophobic properties. This work includes monomer synthesis, surface modifications with alkyl, aryl or perfluoroalkyl chain.
