On December 31, 2020, DeLeon, Michelle; Baldelli, Steve published an article.Electric Literature of 143-10-2 The title of the article was Electroreductive desorption of alkanethiols on gold and UPD copper/gold surfaces using in situ second harmonic generation. And the article contained the following:
The reductive desorption of three alkanethiols: 1-decanethiol (DT), 1-dodecanethiol (DDT), and 1-octadecanethiol (ODT) was studied. Real-time second harmonic generation (SHG) was used to monitor changes at the surface as the self-assembled monolayer was electrodesorbed from a gold and UPD Cu/Au electrode through cyclic voltammetry (CV). Before and after reductive desorption, samples are examined ex situ with sum frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy, XPS, and contact angle (CA). These techniques confirmed the electrodesorption of short-chain alkanethiols, while long-chain alkanethiols were proven to remain near the surface of the electrode. However, a difference was observed for a DDT monolayer on the UPD Cu/Au electrode. While DDT was easily desorbed from a gold substrate, DDT on the UPD Cu/Au electrode behaved similarly to a long-chain alkanethiol on gold. Significantly, SHG was able to determine the relative alkanethiol coverage even while the desorption-features in the CV were obscured by the hydrogen evolution current. The experimental process involved the reaction of 1-Decanethiol(cas: 143-10-2).Electric Literature of 143-10-2
