A ruthenium(II) complex with bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)dithioacetate built layer-by-layer on silver and gold surfaces

Abstract A ruthenium(II) complex with bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)dithioacetate was self-assembled layer-by-layer on silver and gold surfaces. The two-step process and the ability of the complex to scavenge nitric oxide were studied by cyclic voltammetry.
