Abstract

The protonation/deprotonation response of a novel bipyridine containing (phenylene–ethynylene) thiol adsorbed to a Au surface was investigated with scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), showing reversible changes in the average heights (∼50 spots) and the height distribution arising from protonation/deprotonation.
