Singly anchored molecules lack a second terminal anchor group to complete a closed electronic circuit. Prior work has reported that electron transport in singly anchored molecules occurs by non-covalent interactions such as π-π stacking and Au-π interactions . However, the unanchored terminus is exposed to a strong electric field due to the close proximity to the metal electrode, which could induce a dynamic second anchor via a redox reaction and subsequent formation of an Au-C bond . In addition, understanding the electron transport behavior in π-conjugated molecules with one terminal anchor group could provide additional insights into non-covalent intermolecular interactions. Intermolecular charge transport in π-stacked aromatic groups is critical to organic electronics . The efficiency of electron transport in π-stacked systems depends on the electronic coupling and the distance and orientation between neighboring πstacked molecules . Although recent work has examined electron transport in singly anchored organic molecules , we lack a complete understanding of the potential for dynamic anchor formation for singly anchored molecules under external electric fields.
