One-step vs stepwise immobilization of 1-d coordination-based rh-rh molecular wires on gold surfaces.

Résumé

Reaction of dimeric [Rh(II)(2)(phen)(2)(μ-OAc)(2)(MeCN)(2)](BF(4))(2) (phen =1,10-phenanthroline) with pyrazine (pz) in a 1:2 ratio leads to the new 1-D metal-metal-bonded coordination oligomer {[Rh(II)(2)(phen)(2)(μ-OAc)(2)(pz)](BF(4))(2)}(n) (Rh-Rhpz)(n) (1), where each Rh atom of the dimeric unit (Rh-Rh) is coordinated in the equatorial plane to a nitrogen atom of a rigid and linear bifunctionalized organic linker (pz). Single X-ray diffraction analysis reveals the 1-D straight oligomeric chain structure (molecular wire, MW) consists of alternating (Rh-Rh) units and pz linking ligands with free BF(4)(-) as counteranions, and each metal center has a slightly distorted octahedral arrangement. The presence of accessible labile MeCN groups on both ends of these MWs ("free ends") enables functionalization of a 4-mercaptopyridine-gold coordinating platform (Au/MP) to form in one step a layer of coordination oligomer (Au/MP(Rh-Rhpz)(n); n ≈ 50). Furthermore (Rh-Rhpz)(n) (n = 1-6) MWs were grafted to Au/MP surfaces by a conventional step-by-step assembly construction involving coordination reactions between the Rh dimer ([Rh(2)(phen)(2)(μ-OAc)(2)(MeCN)(2)](BF(4))(2) (2)) and pz. A detailed physicochemical study (UV-vis, RAIR, QCM-D, ellipsometry, contact angle measurements, as well as impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry) has been made during both assembly methods to characterize the resulting surface-anchored coordination molecular wire (CMW) layers (Au/MP(Rh-Rhpz)(n)). The results indicate that the immobilized molecular assemblies (MAs) were successfully fabricated using both methods of assembly. The efficiency of the two methods is discussed.
