We provide insight into surface-catalyzed dehalogenative polymerization, analyzing the organometallic intermediate and its evolution planar polymeric structures. A combined study using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), low energy electron diffraction (LEED), near-edge absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) first-principles calculations unveils structural conformation of substrate-bound phenylene intermediates generated from 1,4-dibromobenzene precursors...
Positioning of absolute energy levels and the quantitative description occupied obtained for TiO<sub>2</sub> nanopowders, combining UPS UV-Vis spectroscopies.
We report the synthesis and first electronic characterization of an atomically thin two dimensional π-conjugated polymer. Polymerization via Ullmann coupling a tetrabrominated tetrathienoanthracene on Ag(111) in ultra-high vacuum (UHV) produces porous 2D polymer network that has been characterized by scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM). High-resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HRXPS) shows reaction proceeds distinct steps: dehalogenation brominated precursor, which begins at room...
Two-dimensional molecular self-assembly at the liquid/solid interface is a widely employed approach in surface science to pattern surfaces nanometre scale. A multitude of supramolecular structures can be realized depending on parameters such as functionalization building blocks, temperature which takes place, type solvent and solute concentration. How these other influence kinetics thermodynamics process subject this review.
We report the synthesis of extended two-dimensional organic networks on Cu(111), Ag(111), Cu(110), and Ag(110) from thiophene-based molecules. A combination scanning tunnelling microscopy X-ray photoemission spectroscopy yields insight into reaction pathways single molecules towards formation organometallic polymeric structures via Ullmann dehalogenation C-C coupling. The thermal stability molecular is probed by annealing at elevated temperatures up to 500 °C. On Cu(111) only are formed,...
Abstract Pt‐based materials are widely used as heterogeneous catalysts, in particular for pollutant removal applications. The state of Pt has often been proposed to differ depending on experimental conditions, example, metallic poisoned with CO being present at lower temperature before light‐off, while an oxidized surface prevails above light‐off temperature. In stark contrast all previous reports, we show herein that both and similar proportions under reaction conditions the ca. 1 nm...
Abstract On-surface covalent self-assembly of organic molecules is a very promising bottom–up approach for producing atomically controlled nanostructures. Due to their highly tuneable properties, these structures may be used as building blocks in electronic carbon-based molecular devices. Following this idea, here we report on the structure an ordered array poly(para-phenylene) nanowires produced by surface-catalysed dehalogenative reaction. By scanning tunnelling spectroscopy follow...
Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs) have been recently proposed as promising electrocatalysts, yet the exact nature of mechanisms in play has not addressed depth. By comparing electrocatalytic activity a MOF for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and corresponding molecular building units through electrochemical techniques, here, we investigate catalytic sites, their redox states electron transfer pathways.

Furfural is a pivotal renewable platform molecule obtained from the chemical breakdown of hemicellulose. While it has traditionally been valorized to value-added chemicals through catalytic hydrogenation in biorefineries, its direct electrocatalytic presents attractive advantages. This article describes significant improvements brought by structuring copper cathodes applied this process terms activity and selectivity. We show that structured electrodes are capable converting furfural...
