Electrochemical control of surface properties using a quinone-functionalized monolayer: effects of donor–acceptor complexes

Abstract

A benzoquinone monolayer-functionalized electrode reveals electrochemically or chemically controlled wettability; the hydrophobicity of the hydroquinone-modified surface is enhanced by the presence of a donor–acceptor complex with N,N′-dimethyl-4,4′-bipyridinium as the π-electron acceptor.
