title: X-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy determination of the binding mechanism of tetrahedral anions to self assembled monolayers on mesoporous support.
abstract: X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) spectroscopy is used to investigate the chemical interaction between the end member [Cu(NH2)6] of self-assembled monolayers on mesoporous supports (SAMMS) and the tetrahedral anion SO4. The local structure about Cu indicates monodentate bonding between the SO4 anion and the SAMMS.
