We report the on-surface synthesis of furanoacenes on Au(111). Based on combination of bond-resolved scanning tunneling microscopy (BR-STM), scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations two isomers are identified and their self-assembly, as well as structural and electronic properties are analyzed in detail.

With this project, we will contribute to the advancement of the field of gold homogeneous catalysis by synthesizing advanced chiral gold catalysts that mimic the characteristics of enzymes and to develop new synthetic methods based on the activation of acetylene gas, a commodity in industry.
See moreWe work on the development of organic chemistry, exploring new areas of organometallic chemistry. After our early work on palladium, nickel, ruthenium, and platinum, our most recent contributions have been in homogeneous gold catalysis, where we established the foundations that have guided the discovery of new transformations by other research groups.
