Abstract

On-surface synthesis can be regarded as an efficient means to build new molecular species by using bottom-up strategies, and has emerged as a powerful method to tailor-make and precisely construct functional molecules with atomic precision. In an unimolecular reaction, molecular bonds inside a single molecule are formed or dissociated, changing therefore the geometry and the electronic properties of the molecule. In this article, we discuss recent progresses and future prospects of unimolecular reactions on surface performed by scanning probe microscopy manipulation and thermal annealing, and investigated by scanning probe microscopy and spectroscopy.
