High temperature hydrogen stream treatment of nanodiamond was shown to produce nanodiamond with bifunctional surface. OH- and different CH-groups were shown to be the main functional groups on the surface. In this article we proposed two main strategies for further chemical modification of hydrogenated nanodiamond. OH-groups were shown to react with different types of acylating agents: anhydrides and chloranhydrides. Chlorination of hydrogenated nanodiamond with molecular chlorine and its subsequent treatment with alkyllithium reagents resulted in formation of alkyl-nanodiamonds. Chlorination was shown to reduce the size of nanodiamonds aggregates. We have also applied suspension-state NMR-H1 spectroscopy to study suspensions of alkyl-nanodiamonds for the first time.
