Article Abstract

The surface-assisted synthesis of gold-organometallic hybrids on the Au(111) surface both by thermo- and light-initiated dehalogenation of bromo-substituted tetracene is reported. Combined X-ray photoemission (XPS) and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) data reveal a significant increase of the surface order when mild reaction conditions are combined with 405 nm light irradiation.

Article Synopsis
  • Acenes are significant polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons noted for their potential use as organic semiconductors, which also allow for the study of unique physical and chemical properties, particularly in one-dimensional structures.* -
  • Larger acenes, like heptacene and nonacene, are challenging to synthesize traditionally due to their poor solubility and reactivity, making new synthesis methods important.* -
  • This research presents a method for creating heptacene and nonacene using visible light to induce reactions on a gold substrate under ultra-high vacuum, and it includes advanced imaging and computational techniques to analyze their properties.*
