Soluble samples of single-wall and multiple-wall carbon nanotubes that are functionalized by lipophilic and hydrophilic dendra can be defunctionalized in homogeneous solutions under base- and acid-catalyzed hydrolysis reaction conditions. The results provide strong evidence for the ester linkages in the functionalization of carbon nanotubes.
