Building block syntheses of gallic acid monomers and tris-(O-gallyl)-gallic acid dendrimers chemically attached to graphite powder: a comparative study of their uptake of Al(III) ions.

A synthesis of graphite powder covalently modified with gallic acid (3,4,5-trihydroxybenzoic acid), via a 1,2-diaminoethane "linker" molecule, to form gallylaminoethylaminocarbonyl graphite (gallic-carbon) is reported. The synthesis was used as a model for a "ground-upwards building-b...
