Sterically hindered diazonium salts for the grafting of a monolayer on metals.
An organic monolayer is obtained on Cu, Au, and SiH by electrografting 3,5-bis-tert-butyl benzenediazonium tetrafluoroborate, as evidenced by cyclic voltammetry, IR-ATR, and ellipsometry. This results from the bulky groups at the 3,5-positions that sterically hinder the growth of the layer.
