Amine-terminated monolayers on carbon : preparation, characterization, and coupling reactions

Aminophenyl and aminomethylphenyl monolayers have been electrografted to glassy carbon and pyrolyzed photoresist film from the corresponding diazonium ions using a protection-deprotection strategy based on Boc (tert-butyloxycarbonyl) and Fmoc (fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl) groups. After grafting and t...

Zusammenfassung:Aminophenyl and aminomethylphenyl monolayers have been electrografted to glassy carbon and pyrolyzed photoresist film from the corresponding diazonium ions using a protection-deprotection strategy based on Boc (tert-butyloxycarbonyl) and Fmoc (fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl) groups. After grafting and then deprotecting films of Boc-NH-Ar, Fmoc-NH-Ar, and Fmoc-NH-CH2-Ar, depth profiling by atomic force microscopy confirmed that the resulting amine-terminated films were monolayers. In contrast, after deprotection, Boc-NH-CH2-Ar gave a multilayer film. Electroactive carboxylic acid derivatives were coupled to the monolayers through amide linkages. Electrochemical measurements revealed that the deprotected Fmoc-NH-CH2-Ar monolayer gave the highest surface concentration of coupled nitrophenyl and ferrocenyl groups and DFT calculations established that this monolayer has the highest theoretical surface concentration of those examined
