Abstract

In this paper, a novel core-modified porphyrin with meso-aryl substituents and phenanthrene-fused pyrrole rings (N2S2–OR) is synthesized. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) has been used to probe its self-assembly behavior on a highly-oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) surface. Our STM results have shown that there is an obvious solvent-dependent self-assembly for the surface-confined target molecules. In n-tetradecane, N2S2–OR assembles into a perfect alternating structure. At the 1-phenyloctane–graphite interface, disordered structures are formed and nonperiodic alternation is observed, whereas the target molecule in 1-heptanoic acid is assumed to form homogeneous close-packed monolayers with no alternating. Interestingly, such solvent-dependent supramolecular assembled behavior also involves the structural transformation of the backbone of the core-modified porphyrin derivative from saddle to reversed-saddle in these three solvents with different polarities.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
