Description

Graphene quantum dot and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of carbon nanomaterials, in particular to a graphene quantum dot and a preparation method thereof.
Background
The graphene quantum dots are graphene nanoplatelets having a lateral dimension of less than 100 nm, and the preparation method thereof can be simply divided into two methods, i.e., a "top-down" method for preparing the graphene quantum dots by cutting a substance having a graphite-like hexagonal structure, such as graphene, graphene oxide, carbon nanotubes, and the like, and a "bottom-up" method for preparing the graphene quantum dots. Since the hexagonal graphite-like structure is very stable, which makes the cutting of the reactant difficult, long-term heating treatment with concentrated acid and strong oxidant (electrostatic Analysis and Purification of Fluorescent Single-Walled Carbon Nanotube Fragments [ J ]. 2004.) or high-power ultraviolet irradiation (Zhou X, zhang Y, wang C, et al, photo-Fenton reaction of graphene oxide: a new energy to prepare graphene oxides [ J ]. Acs Nano, 2012, 6 (8): 6592-6599.) are often required to advance the reaction, which is not favorable for large-scale preparation.
Hofmann rearrangement (Hofmann rearrangement) is a reaction in which hypohalite is used as an oxidizing agent to convert a primary amide into a corresponding primary amine, and the general reaction formula can be represented as follows:
R-CO-NH 2 + NaOX + 2NaOH → R-NH 2 +Na 2 CO 3 + NaX +H 2 O (1)
studies have shown that when a primary amide group is attached to an aromatic group, the reactivity is significantly improved, probably because the aromatic group effectively stabilizes intermediates of the hofmann rearrangement reaction. This reaction removes the carbonyl group between the aromatic group and the amine group, is a "carbon reduction" reaction, and is also known as hofmann degradation.
Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the problem of preparing graphene quantum dots by graphene oxide, the invention aims to provide a preparation method of the graphene quantum dots.
Still another object of the present invention is to: the graphene quantum dot prepared by the method is provided.
The invention is realized by the following scheme: a preparation method of graphene quantum dots is a method for first modifying graphene oxide through acylamino and then cutting the graphene oxide into graphene quantum dots, and comprises the following steps:
(1) Dispersing graphene oxide into an aqueous dispersion;
(2) Adding ammonia water into the dispersion liquid obtained in the step (1) to neutralize the acidity of the dispersion liquid, and additionally adding an ammonium chloride solution as an amine group source;
(3) Heating and evaporating the dispersion liquid obtained in the step (2) to dryness so as to convert carboxyl on the surface of the graphene oxide into primary amide;
(4) Cleaning and grinding the substance obtained in the step (3), controlling the temperature, adding a Hofmann reaction reagent, and quickly stirring;
(5) Adding sodium sulfite into the reaction liquid obtained in the step (4) until the reaction liquid does not discolor the starch potassium iodide test paper any more;
(6) And (5) filtering the reaction liquid obtained in the step (5) and recovering residual solids. Repeatedly dialyzing the obtained liquid in a dialysis bag until the obtained liquid is added with AgNO 3 No precipitate is generated; and (5) obtaining the water dispersion of the product graphene quantum dots in a dialysis bag.
Preferably, the concentration of the graphene oxide prepared in the step (1) is 1 g L -1
Preferably, the evaporating temperature in step (3) is 85 ℃.
Preferably, a sodium hypochlorite solution or a newly prepared sodium hypobromite solution is used as the Hofmann rearrangement reagent in the step (4).
Preferably, the reaction temperature in step (4) is controlled to 5 ℃.
Preferably, the reagent for quenching the Hofmann rearrangement reaction in step (5) is sodium sulfite.
Preferably, the permeability of the dialysis bag in step (6) is 14000 molecular weight.
The invention provides a graphene quantum dot prepared by the method.
The mechanism of the invention is as follows:
firstly, converting carboxyl in graphene oxide into primary amide, and expressing graphene oxide by GO, wherein in the step (2):
GO-COOH + NH 3 → GO-COONH 4 (2)
the reaction is a reversible reaction. Further conversion to the primary amide in step (3):
GO-COONH 4 → GO-CO-NH 2 + H 2 O (↑) (3)
GO-COOH + NH 4 Cl → GO-CO-NH 2 + H 2 O (↑) + HCl (↑) (4)
in the evaporation conditions, the reactions (3) and (4) are shifted to the right sufficiently and are complete by virtue of the volatility of the water and hydrogen chloride molecules at 85 ℃.
In step (4), the primary amide first undergoes a hofmann rearrangement:
GO-COONH 2 → GO-NH 2 (5)
one carbon is lost and the amine as product is unstable in oxidizing conditions and is oxidized again to the amide:
GO-NH 2 → GO-CO-NH 2 (6)
in reaction (6), the product is reconverted to the primary amide, but the parent GO is reduced by one carbon atom. Under the condition of Hofmann rearrangement reaction, the reactions (5) and (6) can alternately occur, so that the parent GO continuously loses carbon atoms at the position, the reaction result is equivalent to that the parent GO is cut by a Hofmann rearrangement reaction reagent under the catalysis of a nitrogen-containing group, and after the reaction cycle is repeatedly performed, the graphene oxide is cut into small enough sheets, namely graphene quantum dots, and the graphene quantum dots have good dispersibility and can be recovered from a reaction solution.
Under the technical background, the invention provides a preparation method of graphene quantum dots aiming at the problem of preparing the graphene quantum dots by graphene oxide, and the preparation method has the advantages that:
(1) The reaction device is simple;
(2) The reaction conditions are mild.
