A novel quinoline derivative 6-(10-thiol-decaoxy ) quinoine (abbreviated as QC10SH )was synthesized and its seif-assembled monoayers (SAMs) were prepared on gold for the first time. Wettability measurement on QC10SH SAM reveals a hydrophilic surface. RA-IR researches suggests that the SAM has formed highly-organized and closely-packed structure. A method is developed for quanitatively evaluating the molecular orientation in monoayer. By this method the result that the twisting and tilting angles of QC10SH moecule in SAM are 50±4° and 24±3°respectively has been obtained.
The formation kinetics of the self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of an azobenzenealkanethiol,denoted as AzoC2SH on surface was studied using electrochemical techniques,and the monolayers prepared at different assembly times and concentration were also investigated.A two-step adsorption kinetics has been confirmed:the fast adsorption process and the following long-term reorganization.The equilibrium constant(K)for the adsorptioon and the interaction factor between adsorbate-adsorbate molecules () were evaluated based on the Frumkin isotherm and determined to be (3. 17±0. 13)× 106 mol.L(-1) and -0.34±0.04, respectively The Gibbs free energy (G)of SAM was determined to be -(37. 07±0. 13)kJ.mol(-1)
