Tracking immobilized molecular complexes under in situ conditions is vital for the development of next-generation catalysts, although the poor surface sensitivity of many techniques makes this challenging. Now, the role of the anchoring group in a nickel bis(terpyridine) complex has been elucidated by in situ gap-plasmon-assisted SERS coupled with DFT calculations.
