The adsorption behavior of benzoic acids on metal interfaces is of high interest for metal-substrat interactions for catalysis and the construction of metal-organic frameworks. Here we present our results on the growth of thin films of 4-R-benzoic acid (R stands for hydroxyl-, methoxy-, propoxy-, pentoxy- and decyloxy-chains) and terephthalic acid (TPA) on Au(111) and oxidized aluminum. The adsorption was studied with metastable induced electron spectroscopy (MIES) and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS(HeI)). For the monolayer on Au(111) we find hints for a flat orientation of the molecules. For the growth on an oxidized aluminum foil we suppose a more upstanding arrangement. The TPA molecules show a similar growth behavior for both surfaces.
