Current-voltage (I-V) characteristics for metal-molecule-metal junctions formed from three classes of molecules measured with a simple crossed-wire molecular electronics test-bed are reported. Junction conductance as a function of molecular structure is consistent with I-V characteristics calculated from extended Hueckel theory coupled with a Green's function approach, and can be understood on the basis of bond-length alternation.

Redox behaviour of an array of dodecanethiol-coated silver nanoparticles, self-assembled on the gold electrode surface by dithiol linkers, is dominated in aqueous electrolytes by a reversible faradaic process that has been attributed to the anodic oxidation of silver nanoparticles. The nanoparticle array may be switched between the oxidised and reduced states repeatedly without any significant loss of electroactive material, thus showing a remarkable stability under electrochemical conditions. The mainly capacitive high-frequency electrical response of the nanoparticle array/electrolyte interface is characterised by a low value of capacitance, typical of a self assembled monolayer (SAM) of long-chain alkanethiols on gold; it has been associated with the compact organic layer interposed between the nanoparticles and the gold substrate. At lower frequencies, the interface displays a poorer electrical behaviour with both capacitive and resistive elements, which was associated with the more disordered organic layer located on the outer side of the film.
Orthogonally Functionalized Oligomers for Controlled Self-Assembly

The synthesis of molecules terminated with complementary thiol-protecting groups is described. The target compounds contain functionalities on one end known to form self-assembled monolayers on metal surfaces while at the other end an intact thioacetate is present whereby self-assembly may again occur after an in situ deprotection. Self-assembly data is reported for selected compounds to assess their efficacy in surface adhesion.

, (2008/06/13)
Pesticidal composition comprising: a pesticidal, phosphoric ester the molecule of which has at least one alkyl group of 1 to 3 carbon atoms, 0.05 to 10% of an agent stabilizing the said ester against decomposition by protonisation, together with adjuvants characterized in that the stabilizing agent comprises at least one sulphur compound containing per molecule at least one divalent sulphur atom of which one valence is bonded to an atom chosen from sulphur, carbon, nitrogen, hydrogen, and metals capable of giving a salt, the other valence being bonded to an atom chosen from hydrogen, the carbon atom already noted, a second carbon atom, the nitrogen atom already noted, a second nitrogen atom, the metal atom already noted in the case of a metal of valence greater than one, a second atom of metal and oxygen when the first valence is not attached to an atom of hydrogen, the proportion of sulphur calculated with reference to the weight of the sulphur compound being between 5 and 99%. Process for stabilizing a phosphoric ester of which the molecule possesses at least one alkyl group containing 1 to 3 carbon atoms characterized in that there is added to the phosphoric ester or to a mixture which contains it, 0.05 to 10% calculated on the weight of the phosphoric acid ester of an agent capable of stabilizing the said phosphoric ester against protonisation and comprising at least one sulphur compound such as that defined thereupon.
