Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The adsorption of 2-naphthalenethiol and bis(2-naphthyl) disulfide onto bulk An has been indirectly quantified from the adsorbate solution by liquid chromatography. A study of the kinetics of monolayer formation and exchange of these adsorbants has been carried out. Using chromatographic retention times and diode array spectroscopy, the products of desorption and exchange have been identified directly. For both aryl-derived monolayers, desorption in pure solvent yields bis(2-naphthyl) disulfide. Exchange of both aryl monolayers with decanethiol is observed, with 2-naphthalenethiol as the sole product, suggesting that exchange involves proton transfer at the An surface rather than monolayer desorption followed by addition. Exchange of the aryl monolayers with didecyl disulfide is much slower yields decyl 2-naphthyl disulfide. A comparison of the coverage of the aryl monolayers obtained by chromatography has been made with voltaminetric reductive desorption. Confirmation of reductive thiolate desorption by voltammetry is obtained by in situ ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. Thiolate oxidation of the polycyclic aromatic monolayers under aerobic conditions was not observed. Estimates of the free energies of adsorption for aliphatic and aromatic thiols provide similar values, indicating no strong preference by Au for either type of thiol. Similar conlusions are reached concerning the respective disulfidea.
