Three different low index surfaces of group 11 metals (Cu, Ag and Au) are used to provide both the support and the metal atoms for metal-organic coordination. By real space visualisation with single molecule resolution employing scanning tunnelling microscopy we investigate the molecular self-assembly and show how this can be substantiated with the formation of metal-organic linear and cyclic oligomers, depending on the employed substrate.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessOrganic CoordinationComplexPyreneDehydrogenationHexahydroxytriphenyleneTransformationsStabilizationFrameworksChemistryCu(111)Article10.1039/c8nr02537a
