Synthesis of a disulfide functionalized diacetylenic derivative of carbazole as building-block of polymerizable self-assembled monolayers.

Description

A new symmetrical disulfide containing a diacetylenic unit and bearing a fluorescent carbazolyl end-group forming polymerizable self-assembled monolayers on metallic nanostructures has been synthesized. Suitable modifications of the synthetic steps involved in the synthesis of such derivatives were made in order to assure better synthetic pathway. Conversion of the tosylated derivative into the final symmetrical disulfide is carried out using sodium hydrosulfide (NaSH).
