Alligator clip on a nickel electrode : Monolayers of ferrocenyl‐terminated isocyanides are strongly chemisorbed on nickel surfaces (see picture). The nickel–isocyanide interaction has a parallel binding mode, and the monolayers have higher thermal stability in boiling ethanol than thiol monolayers on gold. The nickel–isocyanide monolayers could be useful in molecular electronics.
