Metal precursorsAgNO3, 339.7 mg in 20 mL aqueous solution
Linker precursorsbenzenehexathiol (BHT), 1 mM in 400 mL toluene
Solvents400 mL degassed water; 400 mL toluene; workup solvents water, dimethylformamide, ethanol, diethyl ether
Atmosphereargon; water and toluene degassed by freeze-thaw before use
Temperature60
Time48
Substrate orientationself-standing film grown at the toluene-water interface
Oxidant / reductantexcess Ag(I) nitrate; dilute nitric acid side product proposed to create an oxidising environment
Work-upAqueous and organic reaction solutions gently removed by syringe; insoluble films rinsed sequentially with water, dimethylformamide, ethanol and diethyl ether.
ActivationFor deposited films, dried overnight in glove box until H2O concentration below 0.1 ppm.
Scalability contextLarge-volume 1000 mL flask recipe gave 310 mg Ag-BHT film at 95% yield.
