| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Non-contact atomic force microscopy (AFM) is a powerful tool for imaging organic molecules with high resolution. Submolecular resolution can be obtained using CO terminated tips. Here, we successfully observed chemical reactions of single molecules which are twisted in gas phase. The chemical reactions include rearrangement of one of the azuleno moieties into a fulvaleno moiety that never be reported in traditional chemistry. It was assisted by the interaction with the substrate.
