Air exposed 1,4-bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,4-dihydropyrazine: an avant-garde carbonization precursor for multi-functionalized carbon material

1,4-Bis(trimethysilyl)-1,4-dihydropyrazine 1 has been utilized as a small molecule precursor for carbonization to N,O-containing few-layered carbon sheets 3 via the formation of a polymeric material 2 upon simple air exposure at room temperature. Without any further purification, this multi-function...

Summary:1,4-Bis(trimethysilyl)-1,4-dihydropyrazine 1 has been utilized as a small molecule precursor for carbonization to N,O-containing few-layered carbon sheets 3 via the formation of a polymeric material 2 upon simple air exposure at room temperature. Without any further purification, this multi-functionalized carbon material 3 exhibited excellent anode performance in a lithium ion battery. 1,4-Bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,4-dihydropyrazine acts as a small molecule precursor for carbonization to multi-functionalized carbon via polymeric intermediate formation upon air exposure.
