Self-assembly of functional molecular building blocks into supramolecular structures has attracted a wealth of attention in the past due to its potential usage in molecular devices [1]. However, a drawback of such regular nanostructures is, due to their comparably weak intermolecular interactions, poor thermal and chemical stability. Consequently, robust structures with covalently bonded architectures have attracted much attention as a new alternative route towards the design of nanostructures [2]. Herein, we discuss the formation of stable molecular networks on different metal substrates through on-surface polymerization of the molecular precursor dibromopyrene. The investigations were carried out by using a combination of scanning tunneling microscopy, x-ray photoemission spectroscopy, and density functional theory. We demonstrate that the surface-confined polymerization can be steered by the chosen substrate. [1] Schenning, A. P. H. J.; Meijer, E. W. Chem. Commun. 2005, 26, 3245.
