Despite their importance in self-assembly processes, the influence of charged counterions on the geometry of self-assembled organic monolayers and their direct localisation within the monolayers has been given little attention. Recently, various examples of self-assembled monolayers composed of charged molecules on surfaces have been reported, but no effort has been made to prove the presence of counterions within the monolayer. Here we show that visualisation and exact localisation of counterions within self-assembled monolayers can be achieved with scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM). The presence of charges on the studied shape-persistent macrocycles is shown to have a profound effect on the self-assembly process at the liquid–solid interface. Furthermore, preferential adsorption was observed for the uncharged analogue of the macrocycle on a surface.

ABSTRACTA series of substituted phenylene ethynylene diazonium salts were prepared from the corresponding anilines by the action of nitrosonium tetrafluoroborate in sulfolane-acetonitrile solvent. Formation of self-assembled layers of the diazonium salts in acetonitrile solution was demonstrated on Au, Cu and Pt surfaces. The self-assembly rate of the diazonium salts was found to be markedly dependent on the electron withdrawing character of the substituents attached to the aromatic rings.

Amino acids adsorbed on single-crystal metal surfaces have emerged as prototypical systems for exploring the properties that govern the development of long-range chirality in self-assembled monolayers and supramolecular 2D networks. In this study, we characterise the self-assembly mechanism for glycine on the Cu(110) surface.
