“…34,39,40 Notably, recently, we have explored the formation of SAMs on Au using electroactive molecules such as organic radicals as well as a ferrocenyl-stilbene analogue (Fc) bearing terminal alkynes. 36,41,37 Based on these precedents and with the goal to achieve covalent robust molecule/metal interactions that ensure suspension stability under electrochemical conditions, herein, we have employed terminal alkynes for the functionalization of Au NPs. In this study, functional redox-active Fc−C�C−Au NP composite films, self-assembled at the LLI, were prepared employing Au NPs stabilized with poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP) as precursors.…”
