Abstract:
We herein propose an approach to visualize the Menschutkin reaction at an interface between a self-assembled monolayer with nucleophilic properties and water containing alkyl halides. An organic field-effect transistor functionalized with a nucleophilic monolayer has detected in situ alkylation depending on differences in the leaving group ability and the bulkiness of electrophilic alkyls.
