Reflection anisotropy spectroscopy (RAS) has been used to show that at saturation coverage adenine adsorbs on the Au(110)/electrolyte interface in a base-stacking configuration with the plane of the bases orientated vertically on the surface and with the long axis of the molecules parallel to the [110] direction. Changes in the RAS observed from adsorbed adenine as a result of changes in the potential applied to the Au(110) electrode could arise from slight changes in the orientation of the molecules in the vertical plane.
