Zusammenfassung:Robust bonded layers of an aromatic fluorosulfonimide electrolyte were created on glassy carbon disk and plate electrodes by electroreduction of a new fluorosulfonimide aryl diazonium zwitterion. Formation of the bonded layer was confirmed by XPS of the modified surfaces and also by the effect of the bound layer on reduction/oxidation of redox-active probe molecules. Surface coverage in the monolayer range was achieved. Counterions for as-formed layers were initially tetra-alkylammonium ions from the coating electrolyte but could subsequently be exchanged for other cations by exposure to salt solutions. The bonded layers are very stable with respect to treatment with solvents (water and/or acetonitrile), dry heat (120 degrees C), and hot acid (triflic acid, 80 degrees C, neat and containing 50 wt % water); however, they are unstable with respect to electro-oxidative scanning in aqueous electrolyte solutions
