Amine‐Reactive Monolayers on Scribed Silicon with Controlled Levels of Functionality: Reaction of a Bare Silicon Surface with Mono‐ and Diepoxides

Abstract

The reaction of epoxides with a bare silicon surface is reported (see scheme). Diepoxides yield amine-reactive monolayers on scribed silicon. Controlled levels of epoxide functionality are obtained in mixed monolayers of 1,2-epoxyoctane and 1,2,7,8-diepoxyoctane.
