In this work, we have theoretically determined the one-electron oxidation potentials and charge transfer mechanisms in complex systems based on a self-assembled monolayer of guanine molecules adsorbed on a gold surface through different organic linkers. Classical molecular dynamics simulations were...

520 |a In this work, we have theoretically determined the one-electron oxidation potentials and charge transfer mechanisms in complex systems based on a self-assembled monolayer of guanine molecules adsorbed on a gold surface through different organic linkers. Classical molecular dynamics simulations were carried out to sample the conformational space of both the neutral and the cationic species. Thus, the redox potentials were determined for the ensembles of geometries through multiscale quantum-mechanics/molecular-mechanics/continuum solvation model calculations in the framework of the Marcus theory and in combination with an additive scheme previously developed. In this context, conformational sampling, description of the environment, and effects caused by the linker have been considered. Applying this methodology, we unravel the phenomena of electric current transport by evaluating the different stages in which charge transfer could occur. The results revealed how the positive charge migrates from the organic layer to the gold surface. Specifically, the transport mechanism seems to take place mainly along a single ligand and driven with the help of the electrostatic interactions of the surrounding molecules. Aside, several self-assembled monolayers with different linkers have been analyzed to understand how the nature of that moiety can tune the redox properties and the efficiency of the transport. We have found that the conjugation between the guanine and the linker, at the same time conjugated to the gold surface, gives rise to a more efficient transport. In conclusion, the established computational protocol sheds light on the mechanism behind charge transport in electrochemical DNA-based biosensor nanodevices
