Novel dithiazepane-functionalized ferrocenyl-phenylethynyl oligomers 1 and 2 have been synthesized. Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of these ferrocene derivatives have been studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, ellipsometry, and cyclic voltammetry. It has been shown by XPS that monolayers of the dithiazepane-anchored molecules on gold electrodes contain gold-thiolate species. Cyclic voltammetry of the SAMs were characteristic of stable electroactive monolayers even for single-component SAMs of 1 and 2, with the more ideal responses recorded for the two-component SAMs diluted with undecanethiol. The small variation in peak splittings at progressively higher scan rates in these SAMs makes dithiazepane-bridged redox species promising candidates for further studies on molecular wires with bipodal anchoring.
