Recent Progress in the Fabrication of Low Dimensional Nanostructures via Surface-Assisted Transforming and Coupling

Figure 5

The condensation of Schiff-base coupling reaction occurred between TAPP and TPA, sequential (a–c) images acquired in the same location, and corresponding structural models (a′–c′) clearly demonstrate covalent bond formation/cleavage dynamics. Figures are adopted with permission from [12].
