23. Similarly, we observed that the reactivity of the edge of the graphene flake is higher than that of the central region.

28. Phenyl radicals generated from diazonium compounds readily graft onto the basal plane of graphite. Such reactions, conducted in either water or polar organic solvents, are localized around the defect sites and step edges of graphite (see ref 19). The graphene flakes used here are almost defectfree and thus may show much reduced reactivity toward phenyl radicals.
