Abstract

Abstract : In article number 2006709, Tatsuhiko Ohto, Ryo Yamada, Hirokazu Tada, Yoshio Aso, Yutaka Ie, and co‐workers report a tripodal anchor that maintains p‐conjugation through an electrode, anchor, and molecular backbone. Single‐molecular conductance measurements and theoretical calculations reveal that this tripodal anchor molecule shows improved electrical conductance.
