Hydrazobenzenes cannot form single‐molecule devices with gold electrodes in a nonpolar solvent, but with the addition of trifluoroacetic acid, robust single‐molecule junctions are created. Hydrazobenzenes likely undergo rearrangement reactions to form benzidines, which are then attached to gold contacts by dative NH2→Au interactions for junction ...
