The structure of graphene oxide (GO) enables it to act as the olefin in cyclopropanation reaction with ethyl diazoacetate (EDA) under microwave irradiation. This versatile synthetic method offers a powerful method for the rapid chemical modification of GO. The attachment of carbethoxycarbene (CEC) to GO was confirmed by the results of FTIR, XPS, Raman, and UV-vis analysis. (C) 2012 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.
