✦ Synopsis

Inelastic electron tunnelling spectroscopy has been employed to determine the molecular orientation of the three benzene dicarboxylic acids on alumina. All three acids are assigned as coordinating to the alumina via one of their carboxyl groups; the non-adsorbed carboxyl group participating in intermolecular hydrogen bonding with its neighbour.
