“…14,22,23 At sufficiently high temperature, however, copper substrates can spontaneously supply adatoms for coordination, as reported for molecules containing pyridyl groups on Cu(100) 13,24 and on Cu(111). 15,[25][26][27] On Cu(111), Cu coordination or hydrogen bond formation occurs depending on deposition temperature for a N-substituted derivative of pyrene, 28,29 for molecules containing pyridyl groups, 26 and for a carbonitrile-modified anthracene species. 17 The question whether the molecules may play an active role in the atom detachment from steps has emerged.…”
