Improved and new syntheses of potential molecular electronics devices
摘要:
New syntheses of ethyl and nitro substituted oligo(phenylene ethynylene)s (OPEs) have been developed. To further explore whether the presence of nitro functionality in OPEs leads to switching and memory capabilities, new nitro substituted OPEs have been designed and synthesized. An isatogen-based system, a structure that is isomeric to the nitro OPE, has been synthesized. Additionally, pyridine-based and chromium-based compounds have been synthesized. We surmise that redox reactions of these candidates may impart switching capabilities and electrochemical studies are shown. U-shaped OPEs were synthesized to inhibit leakage of metals deposited during formation of top contacts on self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). The OPEs contain either thiol-based moieties or isonitrile groups to enable formation of SAMs on metal substrates. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

New potential molecular electronics devices have been synthesized based on our knowledge of systems that we previously studied. Research has shown that simple molecular systems demonstrate negative differential resistance (NDR) and memory characteristics. The new molecules rely primarily on the redox properties of the compounds to improve upon the solid-state characteristics already observed. Electrochemical tests have been performed in order to evaluate the redox properties with the hope that the electrochemical results can be used as a predictive tool to evaluate the usefulness of those compounds in device configurations.

Several potential molecular devices have been synthesized consisting of oligo(phenylene ethynylene) (OPE) backbones containing a terminal nitrile group alligator clip as a means of attachment to a metal surface. The synthesis of four new nitrile-containing OPEs is discussed, including an improved synthesis of an intermediate used in our prior production of OPEs containing acetate-protected thiol alligator clips.
