The structure of the copper complex of the 6-((1-butanethiol)oxy)-tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine ligand (Cu-tmpa-O(CH2)4SH) anchored to a gold surface has been investigated. To enable covalent attachment of the complex to the gold surface, a heteromolecular self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of butanethiol and a thiol-substituted

The oxidative stability of self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of thiols on silver was examined with matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI) time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometry (MS). A benzenesulfinate (BS) monolayer on silver was also prepared and investigated with MALDI-TOF-MS and surface-enhanced Raman
