In the lecture the use of nitroxides as reagents in materials science is discussed. In particular radical carboaminoxylation mediated by the persistent radical effect for modification of dendrimers, polymers, inorganic materials and Si-wafers is presented. Novel regulators for conduction of nitroxide mediated radical polymerization are introduced and photochemical postmodification of polymers and inorganic materials is discussed. Finally, recent achievements from Münster on the active and emerging area of two-dimensional on-surface chemistry are disclosed.
