Abstract

Hetero-carbon (heteroatomic derivatives of carbon, in which one or several atoms of carbon are replaced on atoms of another non-metals) will a basic component a new generation of nanomaterials. Carbon nitride g-C3N4 it is possible to consider as the limiting saturated by nitrogen a hetero-carbon, that the monolayer ((C6N7)-N) n should be named (on an analogy with azafullerene) azagraphene. Carbon nitride as well as azafullerenes, azananotubes (N-dope nanotubes) and N-doped graphene are used as very sensitive nanosensors. Modifying, in particular, oxidized derivatives of carbon nitride are not studied practically. Here the products of a new route of a pyrolysis of melamine which as against known methods is carried out at the presence of oxygen are described. New compound as carbon nitride oxide (g-C3N4)O was obtained. Its structure is analogue of graphite oxide. Nanosized powder of (g-C3N4)O is easily exfoliated and is dissolved in water with formation of a flake-like suspension. This suspension can contain nanosheets from several heptazine ((C6N7)-N) n monolayers or azagraphenes. Alongside with carbon nitride oxide at pyrolysis of melamine at the presence of oxygen in a one step the O-doped ( ∼ 8.1 %) carbon nitride (O-g-C3N4) is also formed.
