Long range ET across several self-assembled mon-olayer (SAM) covered Au electrodes is investigated using protonated and deuterated thiols (RSH/RSD). The rate of tunneling is measured using both chronoamperometry and cyclic voltammetry and it shows a prominent KIE. The KIE is ~2 (normal) for medium chain length thiols where the Tafel plot indicate substantial through space tunneling and is ~0.25 (inverse) for long chain thiols where the Tafel plot indicate mostly through bond tunneling. These results imply substantial contribution from the classical modes at the Au-(H)SR interface, which shift substantially on deuteration of the thiols, to the ET process.<br>

AbstractNew symmetrical disulfides together with the corresponding thiols bearing fluorescent end-groups have been synthesized as building-blocks for self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). The synthesis has been accomplished starting from aromatic nitrogen heterocycles in three steps. The conversion of the tosylated intermediate into the final disulfide is accomplished by use of sodium hydrogen sulfide (NaSH). Both products (thiols and disulfides) were isolated and characterized.
