Competing pathways to aromaticity governed by amine dehydrogenation and metal–organic complexation in on-surface synthesis

Federica Bondino

Résumé

We investigated the reactivity of a gem-dichlorovinyl-carbazole precursor in the on-surface synthesis approach. Our findings reveal that, on the Au(111) surface, the thermally-induced dehalogenation reaction led to the formation of cumulene dimers. Contrastingly, the more reactive Cu(111) surface promoted the formation of a polyheterocyclic compound exhibiting extended aromaticity. The latter was found to be related to the dehydrogenation of the amine groups, which did not occur on Au(111), thus promoting the different reactivity observed. At higher annealing temperature, selective C-H activation led to the formation of well-defined organometallic chains. In addition, we found that the amine complexation with metal adatom on Cu(111) was an inhibiting factor for the dimerization reaction, a challenge that could be overcome through proper control of the deposition conditions.
