Electrochemical control of surface properties using a quinone-functionalized monolayer: effects of donor-acceptor complexes.
A benzoquinone monolayer-functionalized electrode reveals electrochemically or chemically controlled wettability; the hydrophobicity of the hydroquinone-modified surface is enhanced by the presence of a donor-acceptor complex with N,N'-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridinium as the pi-electron acceptor.
