Abstract: | The effect of metal substrates on the chemical bonding nature at molecule-metal interfaces was investigated for aryl isocyanide molecules with different para-substituents X- C6H4-NC (X = H; NO2 (electron-withdrawing group); OCH3 (electron-donating group)) adsorbed on Au(111) and Ag(111) surfaces by surface-specific vibrational sum frequency generation (VSFG) spectroscopy and periodic density functional theory calculations. Both the experimental VSFG spectra and the anharmonic vibrational spectra from theoretical calculations confirm that the substrate effect acts to increase the NC stretching frequency (blue shift) and that the Au(111) surface shows a larger blue shift than the Ag(111) surface. To analyze the mechanism of this substrate dependence, we performed a natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis extended to periodic systems and found that at the molecule-metal interface, the sigma donation from the molecule to the substrate (strengthening the NC bond) is more pronounced than the pi back-donation (weakening NC bond) and that the effect of sigma donation is stronger for the Au substrate than for the Ag substrate. |
