Abstract
We developed a new class of mono- or few-layered two-dimensional polymers based on dinuclear (arene)ruthenium nodes, obtained by combining the imine condensation with an interfacial chemistry process, and use a modified Langmuir–Schaefer method to transfer them onto solid surfaces. Robust nano-sheets of two-dimensional polymers including dinuclear complexes of heavy ruthenium atoms as nodes were synthesised. These nano-sheets, whose thickness is of a few tens of nanometers, were suspended onto solid porous membranes. Then, they were thoroughly characterised with a combination of local probes, including Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy in imaging and diffraction mode.
