The tunneling mechanism for long range electron transfer in azobenzene self-assembled mololayers on ld has been studied by electrochemical techniques. We have prepared for the first time a series of azobenzene-tethered alkanethiol monolayers on ld electrode surface with varied number of methylenes in the alkyl chain spacer (CH3CH2-4-?-N=N-?-C(O)NH (CH2)nSH/Au, n=2, 3, 4, 6). The apparent electron transfer rate constants kapp of azobenzcne to the underlying electrode are found to fall off exponentially with increasing the length of alkyl chain spacers. Theelectron tunneling constant βfor the electron transfer in the present system are estimated to be 1.35±0.20 per CH2 from the logarithmic kapp. versus n (number of methylenes in the alkyl chain spacer) plot.
