“…The reduction of the diazonium occurs by simple contact of the salt with the material provided this latter has sufficient reducing power; this is the case of carbon materials and metals such as gold. Via either spontaneous or chemically, electrochemically or radiationinduced grafting, covalent bonds were reported to be of the following natures: C-C [48,49,50], C-O-Aryl [48], C-N=N-Aryl [49,48], metal-C [9,51,52], metal-N=N-Aryl [52], and metal-O-C for the interaction of diazonium salts with metal oxides [53]. Table 1 summarizes methods of surface modification of nanoparticles using aryldiazonium salts and the underlying mechanisms of reactions.…”
