Disulfide-Containing Nitrosoarenes: Synthesis and Insights into Their Self-Polymerization on a Gold Surface.

ABSTRACT: Disulfide-containing nitrosoarenes with [bis(4-nitrosobenzyl) disulfide, NOBnDS (1)] or without [4-nitrosophenyl disulfide, NOPDS (2), and 1,2-bis(4'-nitroso-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4-yl)disulfane, NOBPDS (3)] an alkyl spacer between the sulfur headgroup and the aromatic moiety (phenyl in NOPDS (2) or biphenyl in NOBPDS (3)) were synthesized and used as precursors to form azodioxy thiolate films on Au(111) substrates. Due to the incorporated disulfide functionalities, these specifically designed nitrosoarenes are enabled to self-polymerize through azodioxy bonds on a gold surface. Thin films of NOBnDS (1), NOPDS (2), and NOBPDS (3) were prepared at different adsorption times via the solu
