Abstract

Complex patterns: The arene manganese tricarbonyl complexes [Mn(η5-2,5-didodecoxy-1,4-semiquinone)(CO)3] and [Mn(η6-1,4-dioctyloxybenzene)(CO)3] BF4 form patterned monolayers on the surface of highly ordered pyrolytic graphite (HOPG), as a result of hydrogen-bonding, hydrophobic, and electrostatic interactions, leading to an ordered 2D array of manganese atoms or ions.
