Abstract
The molecular structure and organization of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) and multilayer films grafted onto Au/Si(1 1 1) surfaces of mononuclear transition metal dialkynyl bridged Pd(II) complexes trans-[HS-Pd(PBu3)(2)-SH] (1), trans-[HS-Pd(PBu3)(2)(-C C-C6H5)] (2) and of the binuclear complex trans, trans-[HS-Pd(PBu3)(2)(-C C-C6H4-C6H4-C C-Pd(PBu3)(2)-SH] (3), have been investigated by extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy in total reflection conditions (reflEXAFS). ReflEXAFS analysis of the data lead to determine the local structure around Pd atoms, assessing the square-planar geometry around the transition metal in the multilayers case, preserved in the monolayer regime. The investigation on the SAMs also provided the assessment of the S-Au bond length and Pd-S-Au bond angle and on the molecular orientation on the gold substrate of the complexes, confirmed by quantum chemical calculations.
