The studies of (TEMPO)3O3P molecules (tri‐(2,2,6,6‐tetramethyl‐1‐oxyl‐4‐piperidyl) phosphite) and their monolayers formed on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) are presented. (TEMPO)3O3P is synthesized from TEMPOL precursor (4‐hydroxy‐2,2,6,6‐tetramethylpiperidine‐1‐oxyl). We focused on electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) investigations. The EPR experiments demonstrate the paramagnetism of (TEMPO)3O3P in powdered form and in solution. Furthermore, these paramagnetic properties of (TEMPO)3O3P are preserved after the deposition on HOPG substrate. The STM studies show that (TEMPO)3O3P molecules have a strong tendency to form self‐assembled monolayers (SAMs). The detailed STM images let us to explore the structure of (TEMPO)3O3P on HOPG and propose a structural model for the observed SAMs. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) combined with density functional theory (DFT) calculations were applied in studying the anisotropic adsorption and condensation of tert‐butylamine (t‐BA) molecules in the vicinity of the steps on the Cu(111) surface. The preferential adsorption at the upper step edges and uneven distribution of t‐BA in the vicinity of the steps illustrate the asymmetric electronic structure of the surface steps. Our observation demonstrates that the adsorption and diffusion of a polar molecule would be significantly mediated by steps on metal surfaces due to the molecule–step interaction and the intermolecular interactions.  相似文献

The concentration effect on a two‐dimensional (2D) self‐assembly of 4, 4′‐dihexadecyloxy‐benzophenon (DHB) has been investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy. The self‐assembly of DHB at the phenyloctane/graphite interface was concentration dependent. Under low concentration, the DHB molecules were adsorbed intactly on the graphite surface. With the increasing of concentration, one of side chains connecting the conjugated moiety stretched into the liquid phase. The coexistence of two self‐assembled structures was observed in a moderate concentration. The result indicated that the van der Waals interactions between the molecules and the graphite lattice were decreasing with the increasing concentration. After the samples were placed in ambient conditions over 24 h, a different self‐assembled structure was obtained on the gas/solid interface, in which the DHB molecules were adsorbed on the surface with only one of the side chains. Both the benzophenon core and the other side chain were extended to the gas phase. The results demonstrated that concentration played an important role in forming the 2D molecular self‐assembly and provided an efficient approach for the control of the DHB molecular nanostructure.

The adsorption behavior of 2H‐tetrakis(3,5‐di‐tert‐butyl)phenylporphyrin (2HTTBPP) on Cu(110) and Cu(110)–(2×1)O surfaces have been investigated by using variable‐temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) under ultrahigh vacuum conditions. On the bare Cu(110) surface, individual 2HTTBPP molecules are observed. These molecules are immobilized on the surface with a particular orientation with respect to the crystallographic directions of the Cu(110) surface and do not form supramolecular aggregates up to full monolayer coverage. In contrast, a chiral supramolecular structure is formed on the Cu(110)–(2×1)O surface, which is stabilized by van der Waals interactions between the tert‐butyl groups of neighboring molecules. These findings are explained by weakened molecule–substrate interactions on the Cu(110)–(2×1)O surface relative to the bare Cu(110) surface. By comparison with the corresponding results of Cu–tetrakis(3,5‐di‐tert‐butyl)phenylporphyrin (CuTTBPP) on Cu(110) and Cu(110)–(2×1)O surfaces, we find that the 2HTTBPP molecules can self‐metalate on both surfaces with copper atoms from the substrate at room temperature (RT). The possible origins of the self‐metalation reaction at RT are discussed. Finally, peculiar irreversible temperature‐dependent switching of the intramolecular conformations of the investigated molecules on the Cu(110) surface was observed and interpreted.  相似文献

X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and near‐edge x‐ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy have been used to study the time‐dependent adsorption and molecular orientation behaviour of octadecyltrimethoxysilane (ODTMS) on native aluminium oxide surfaces. By measuring the adsorption isotherm using XPS, we show that ODTMS molecules exhibit oscillatory adsorption. The oscillatory adsorption behaviour for ODTMS is analogous to that observed for its simpler short‐chain ‘cousin’—propyltrimethoxysilane (PTMS)—and suggests that the length of the functional alkyl chain on an organosilane does not have a significant influence upon the oscillatory adsorption mechanism. The oscillation in the ODTMS adsorption isotherm shows a maximum and a minimum in coverage at an adsorption time of ~30 and ~65 s, respectively, for a 0.75% ODTMS solution in a 90% ethanol–10% water mixture at pH 4. The time‐dependent orientation behaviour of the ODTMS molecules during adsorption was examined using angular‐dependent carbon K‐edge NEXAFS spectroscopy. We show that the alignment of the ODTMS film changes systematically with deposition time and appears to be correlated with coverage measurements obtained using XPS. In particular, by combining the XPS and NEXAFS results we demonstrate that the minimum ODTMS coverage corresponds to a film whose alignment appears to be predominantly randomized.

An electron‐deficient flat 5,10,15‐tris(ethoxycarbonyl)corrole (TECC) cobalt complex, [Co(TECC)(Py)2] ( 1 ; py = pyridine), was prepared and employed as a catalyst for homogeneous hydrogen evolution. It turns out that water can be successfully used as a proton source in acetonitrile–water (2:3 v /v) solvent system for electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution. Complex 1 is also an efficient photocatalyst for hydrogen generation from aqueous solution, an example of the first application of metal corrole as photocatalyst for hydrogen production.  相似文献

Novel κ3N,N,O ligands tend to form 1D coordination polymer strands. Deposition of 1D structures on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) was achieved from diluted solutions and polymer strands have been studied on HOPG by AFM/STM. Single strands were mapped by STM and their electronic properties were subsequently characterized by current imaging tunneling spectroscopy (CITS). Periodic density functional calculations simulating a polymer strand deposited on a HOPG surface are in agreement with the zig‐zag structure indicated by experimental findings. Both the observed periodicity and the Zn–Zn distances can be reproduced in the simulations. Van der Waals interactions were found to play a major role for the geometry of the isolated polymer strand, for the adsorption geometry on HOPG, as well as for the adsorption energy.  相似文献

Compounds with diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) and thiophene moieties have attracted considerable attention because of their promising charge transport properties. The molecular conformation and self‐assembly of 2,5‐dihexadecyl‐3,6‐di(thiophen‐2‐yl)‐2,5‐dihydropyrrolo[3,4‐c]pyrrole‐1,4‐dione (TDPP‐C16) molecule have been investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy and density functional theory alculation. The TDPP‐C16 molecules adsorb with their optimized S‐shaped conformation and form a zipper‐like pattern on highly oriented pyrolytic graphite surface. R and S rotated structures are observed. The nanostructure is dominated by intermolecular double hydrogen bonds between C═O of the DPP units and hydrogen atom of thiophene rings in the neighboring molecules in each row. Atomic force microscopy and density functional theory calculation also display the existence of strong intermolecular hydrogen bonding. The results provide molecular evidence for the intermolecular interactions of the surface structure, which could benefit to the design of the organic semiconducting materials and understanding of underlying principle of charge transfer process.

Hydroxybenzenes are the parent compounds of large classes of derivatives, many of which exhibit biological activities. This work presents the results of a comparative study of the dimers of selected hydroxybenzenes, considering all the possible mutual geometrical arrangements of the two monomers and comparing their relative stabilities and interaction energies. The OH···OH hydrogen bond between the two monomers is the dominant stabilizing factor, with frequent preference for mutual perpendicularity of the two aromatic rings. C? H···O unconventional H‐bonds, OH···π unconventional H‐bonds, H···π interactions and π··π interactions also may play significant roles. The factors stabilizing individual hydroxybenzenes (presence of intramolecular hydrogen bonds; number, positioning and orientation of the OH groups; symmetry features) have greater influence on the dimers' relative energy than on the interaction energy between monomers. While results from different calculations methods (HF, MP2, and DFT/B3LYP) show consistency for all the features just‐mentioned, they show some relevant differences in the way they take into account different types of interactions between monomers, resulting in some differences in the geometry arrangements of the monomers in the lowest energy dimers and in differences in the relative preferences among higher‐energy dimer geometries. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A type of rosin imidazoline (IM) has been synthesized using rosin acid and diethylenetriamine (DETA) as raw materials. The monolayers of IM were assembled on the surface of iron. The monolayers of the IM inhibitor were characterized by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), electrochemical polarization curves and double‐layer capacitance. Surface analysis was carried out to establish the mechanism of corrosion inhibition of iron by X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy. The IM inhibitor showed good inhibition efficiency for iron in 0.1 M H2SO4. The inhibition mechanism of IM inhibitor was interpreted using molecular simulation.

An appropriate understanding of the process of self‐assembly is of critical importance to tailor nanostructured order on 2D surfaces with functional molecules. Photochromic compounds are promising candidates for building blocks of advanced photoresponsive surfaces. To investigate the relationship between molecular structure and the mechanism of ordering formation, 2‐thienyl‐type diarylethenes with various lengths of alkyl side chains linked through an amide or ester group were synthesized. Their self‐assemblies at a liquid/solid interface were investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The concentration dependence of the surface coverage was analyzed by using a cooperative model for a 2D surface based on two characteristic parameters: the nucleation equilibrium constant (Kn) and the elongation equilibrium constant (Ke). The following conclusions can be drawn. 1) The concentration at which a stable 2D molecular ordering is observed by STM exponentially decreases with increasing length of the alkyl chain. 2) Compounds bearing amide groups have higher degrees of cooperativity in self‐assembly on 2D surfaces (i.e., σ, which is defined as Kn/Ke) than compounds with ester groups. 3) The self‐assembly process of the open‐ring isomer of an ester derivative is close to isodesmic, whereas that of the closed‐ring isomer is cooperative because of the difference in equilibrium constants for the nucleation step (i.e., Kn) between the two isomers.  相似文献

A convergent synthesis of racemic 5‐amino[6]hexahelicene is described. Cross‐coupling reactions are used to assemble a pentacyclic framework, and a metal‐catalyzed ring‐closure comprises the final step. The enantiomers were separated by means of chromatography and the absolute configurations were assigned by comparison of the CD spectra with hexahelicene. The t1/2 value for racemization at 210 °C was approximately 1 hour. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) measurements were carried out on enantiopure and racemic samples of aminohelicene on Au(111) under ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) conditions.  相似文献

The 2D self‐assembly of various 2‐hydroxy‐7‐alkoxy‐9‐fluorenone (HAF) molecules has been investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) at the liquid/solid interface. A systematic study revealed that HAF molecules with different numbers of carbon atoms in their alkoxy chains could form two or three different kinds of nanostructures, that is, less‐ordered, flower‐like, and zig‐zag patterns, owing to the formation of different types of intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The observed structural transition was found to be driven by molecular thermodynamics, surface diffusion, and the voltage pulse that was applied to the STM tip. The zig‐zag pattern was the most stable of these configurations. An odd–even effect on the flower‐like structure, as induced by the odd and even number of carbon atoms in the side chain, was observed by STM. The influence of the odd–even effect on the melting point has a close relationship with the molecular self‐assembled pattern. Our results are significant for understanding the influence of hydrogen‐bonding interactions on the dominant adsorption behavior on the surface and provide a new visual approach for observing the influence of the odd–even effect on the phase transition.  相似文献

A convergent synthesis of racemic [6]hexahelicene‐7‐carboxylic acid by cross‐coupling of a bicyclic and a tricyclic component is described. A metal‐catalyzed ring‐closure is also a fundamental component of the synthetic approach. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) measurements of the racemate self‐assembled on Au(111) at liquid–solid interface revealed the formation of ordered racemic 2D crystals.  相似文献

Formation of a hydrogen‐bond network via an amide group is a key driving force for the nucleation–elongation‐type self‐assembly that is often seen in biomolecules and artificial supramolecular assemblies. In this work, rod‐coil‐like aromatic compounds bearing an amide ( 1 a – 3 a ) or urea group ( 1 u – 3 u ) were synthesized, and their self‐assemblies on a 2‐D surface were investigated by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). According to the quantitative analysis of the concentration dependence of the surface coverage, it was revealed that the strength of the hydrogen bond (i.e., amide or urea) and the number of non‐hydrogen atoms in a molecular component (i.e., size of core and length of alkyl side chain) play a primary role in determining the stabilization energy during nucleation and elongation processes of molecular ordering on the HOPG surface.  相似文献

A simple model has been proposed to explain trends in the computed interaction energy, bond length changes, frequency shifts and infrared intensities for the chlorofluoromethanes CFnClmH, FH and FArH on complexation with the isoelectronic diatomics BF, CO, N2 and the rare gas atoms Kr, Ar, Ne to form a series of linear or nearly linear hydrogen‐bonded complexes. The dipole moment derivative of the proton donor (with respect to the stretching coordinate) and the chemical hardness of the hydrogen‐bonded atom of the proton acceptor are identified as two useful parameters for rationalizing the changes in some of the molecular properties of the proton donor when the hydrogen bond is formed. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Investigating the dynamics in an adlayer of the oligopyridine derivative 2‐phenyl‐4,6‐bis(6‐(pyridine‐2‐yl)‐4‐(pyridine‐4‐yl)pyridine‐2‐yl)pyrimidine (2,4′‐BTP) on Ag(111) by fast scanning tunneling microscopy (video‐STM), we found that rotating 2,4′‐BTP adsorbates coexist in a two‐dimensional (2D) liquid phase (β‐phase) in a dynamic equilibrium with static adsorbate molecules. Furthermore, exchange between an ordered phase (α‐phase) and β‐phase leads to fluctuations of the domain boundary on a time scale of seconds. Quantitative evaluation of the temperature‐dependent equilibrium between rotating and static adsorbates, evaluated from a large number of STM images, gains insight into energetic and entropic stabilization and underlines that the rotating adsorbate molecules are stabilized by an entropy contribution, which is compatible with that derived by using statistical mechanics. The general validity of the concept of entropic stabilization of rotating admolecules, favoring rotation already at room temperature, is tested for other typical small, mid‐size and large adsorbates.  相似文献

The synthesis and self‐assembly behavior of porphyrin–polypyridyl ruthenium(II) hybrid, which consists of a flexible alkyl chain attached with two conjugated moieties is described. The electronic absorption spectrum and emission spectra show that the [C8‐TPP‐(ip)Ru(phen)2](ClO4)2, abbreviated as (C8ip)TPPC has optical properties. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) studies found that the π–π interaction and metal–ligand interaction allow (C8ip)TPPC to form self‐assembled structure and have an edge‐on orientation on the highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surface. The multidentate structure in (C8ip)TPPC molecules act as linkers between the molecules and form metal–ligand coordination, which forces the assembly process in the direction of stable columnar arrays. In addition, although the sample was stored for two months in ambient conditions, STM experiments showed that the order of (C8ip)TPPC self‐assembly only slightly decreased which indicates that the self‐assembled monolayer is stable. This work demonstrates that introducing a metal‐ligand in the porphyrin‐polypyridyl compound is a useful strategy to obtain novel surface assemblies.  相似文献
