Abstract
We describe a general procedure for the synthesis of symmetrical and unsymm etrical disulfides with an attached flavin analog. Self-assembled monolayer s of these disulfides on gold have potential applications as pH sensors and electrocatalysts, The use of a self-assembled monolayer prepared from one of these disulfides in probing the pH Of solutions is reported.
