General description

4,4′-Diphenyltetrathiafulvalene (DPTTF) is a heterocyclic building block. Formation of binary-component self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of DPTTF and n-tetradecane molecules with periodic strip-like phase separation structures on a highly oriented pyrolytic graphite surface has been reported. DPTTF capped gold nanoparticles having 3 to 5nm diameter have been prepared. FT-SERS studies of DPTTF adsorbed on chemically deposited silver films and excited with near infrared radiation have been reported.

We report the formation of a binary-component self-assembled monolayer (SAM) comprising 4,4'-diphenyltetrathiafulvalene (DP-TTF) and n-tetradecane (n-C(14)H(30)) molecules with periodic strip-like phase separation structures on a highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surface. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) imaging reveals that ordered DP-TTF

4,4'-Diphenyltetrathiafulvalene (DPTTF) capped gold nanoparticles of 3- to 5-nm diameter have been prepared and their thermal stability has been investigated by variable temperature FT-IR spectroscopy. The DPTTF molecules at the cluster surface undergo charge-transfer complexation with C(60) to form Au/DPTTF.C(60).
