Coordination polymers may be synthesized by linear bridging ligands to metal ions with conventional chemistry methods (e.g. in solution). Such complexes can be hardly brought onto a substrate with the chemical, spatial and geometrical homogeneity required for device integration. Instead, we follow an in situ synthesis approach, where the anchoring points are provided by a monolayer of metal(II)-tetraphenylporphyrin (M-TPP, M = Cu, Zn, Co) grown in vacuum on the rutile-TiO2(110) surface. We probed the metal affinity to axial coordination by further deposition of symmetric dipyridyl-naphthalenediimide (DPNDI). By NEXAFS linear polarization dichroism, we show that DPNDI stands up on Zn- and Co-TPP thanks to axial coordination, whereas it lies down on the substrate for Cu-TPP. Calculations for a model pyridine ligand predict strong binding to Zn and Co cations, whose interaction with the O anions underneath is disrupted by surface trans effect. The weaker interactions between pyridine and Cu-TPP are then overcome by the strong attraction between TiO2 and DPNDI. The binding sites exposed by the homeotropic alignment of the ditopic DPNDI ligand on Zn- and Co-TPP are the foundations to grow coordination polymers preserving the lateral coherence of the basal layer.
