This work explored the adsorption of organic molecules to achieve change on surfaces. In this context it was proposed, the adsorption of organic molecules of halogenated derivatives of uracil, 5 Fluorouracil and 5 Chlorouracil, in monocrystalline substrate of HOPG (highly oriented pyrolytic graphite), sizzling was the technique used for construction of self-assembled monolayers (SAM). The atomic resolution of the STM (Scanning Tunneling Microscope) images of HOPG substrate prove its hexagonal structure and that their interatomic distance is 0.246 nm. While in the molecular resolution images of 5 Fluorouracil and of 5 Chlorouracil adsorbed on the HOPG substrate, is presented evidence that after in the adsorption some changes occur in the intermolecular distances in the structures and the positioning of these molecular films formed on the substrate because the molecular films behaved in a horizontal position and were stabilized laterally by hydrogen bonds when they are protonated, but when we performed the same procedure of adsorption for these organic molecules, only varying the pH of the environment, the change caused the deprotonation of the molecules, thus allowing one to simulate electrochemical environment and being able to extract information about the pKa of adsorbates using UV-Vis spectroscopy, and was also observed that these deprotonated molecular films behaved in a vertical position on the substrate.
