Popis:	We have characterized the covalent binding of the CO(2) reduction electrocatalyst ReC0A (Re(CO)(3)Cl(dcbpy) (dcbpy =4,4'-dicarboxy-2,2'-bipyridine)) to the TiO(2) rutile (001) surface. The analysis based on sum frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy and density functional theory (DFT) calculations indicates that ReC0A binds to TiO(2) through the carboxylate groups in bidentate or tridentate linkage motifs. The adsorbed complex has the dcbpy moiety nearly perpendicular to the TiO(2) surface and the Re exposed to the solution in a configuration suitable for catalysis.
