The adsorption and ordering of zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) and octachloro zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPcCl(8)) on an Ag(111) surface is studied in situ by scanning tunneling microscopy under ultrahigh vacuum. Two-dimensional self-assembled supramolecular domains are observed for these two molecules. We show how substituting chlorine atoms for half of the peripheral hydrogen atoms on ZnPc influences the self-assembly mechanisms. While intermolecular interactions are dominated by van der Waals forces in ZnPc molecular networks, ZnPcCl(8) molecular packing undergoes a sequential phase evolution driven by the creation of C-Cl...H-C hydrogen bonds between adjacent molecules. At the end of this evolution, the final molecular assembly involves all possible hydrogen bonds. Our study also reveals the influence of molecule-substrate interactions through the presence of fault lines generating a stripe structure in the molecular film.
