A reaction mechanism for oxidative unzipping ... with only small amounts of covalent oxidation. Controlling the KMnO4/MWCNT ratio and time of reaction allows one to produce GNRs with the ...

Add 10 to 15 drops of glycerol to the depression in the center of a pile of finely ground potassium permanganate in an evaporating dish on a heat proof surface. Stand back! Within a few seconds, the ...

The bromination reactions and mechanisms are compared ... Reaction of an alkene with aqueous potassium permanganate results in addition of two hydroxyl groups to each side of the double bond to form a ...
