End-to-end connectivity of Au nanorods (NRs) employing bis(terpyridine)–metal (FeII or CdII) complexes has been demonstrated, along with their facile disassembly and reassembly. Biased surfactant adsorption at the side-walls allowed the predominant, end-facet modification of the NRs. Characterization included UV/Vis and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and TEM imaging.
