Substrate-supported metal organic coordination networks offer the possibility to adjust electronic and magnetic properties on the nanometer scale and represent a step towards the realization of two-dimensional polymers [1]. Here, we report on the adsorption behavior of trifunctional terpyridine monomers on coinage metals by means of low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy. On copper (Cu(111)), the orientation of the terpyridine molecules exhibits a pronounced anisotropy, while a similar behavior was not observed for silver and gold. This is analyzed by density functional theory, revealing specific registries between the monomers and the corresponding substrates. We discuss the impact of this registry on the formation of self-assembled metal organic coordination networks by copper or iron adatoms.
