We studied the reactivity of the dihydrogenated Si(001) surface exposed to propionic acid [1]. The NEB method has been applied to predict energy barriers for chemisorption through the diverse O atoms pertaining to the -COOH group; the different paths to double Si-O bond formation are compared, and discussed in the light of grafting probability and functionalization stability.
