Journal ArticleDOI
Preparation and Characterization of Fulleroid and Methanofullerene Derivatives
TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis and complete characterization of soluble derivatives of C-60 for applications to physics and biology was described, where the goal of the strategy was to have a "modular" approach in order to be able to easily vary a functional group attached indirectly to the cluster.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation of the heterofullerene C59N as its dimer (C59N)2
TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that the azafullerene dimer is formed upon in situ reduction of the highly reactive azafulleronium ion, which opens a viable route for the preparation of other heterofullerenes in solution.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cyanodihydrofullerenes and Dicyanodihydrofullerene: The First Polar Solid Based on C60
TL;DR: In this article, the controlled addition of an electron-withdrawing substituent, cyanide anion, and quenching of the corresponding intermediate C{sub 60}(CN{sup -} anion with different electrophiles was reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Linear free energy relation of methanofullerene C61-substituents with cyclic voltammetry: Strong electron withdrawal anomaly
M. Keshavarz-K.,M. Keshavarz-K.,Brian Knight,Brian Knight,Robert C. Haddon,Robert C. Haddon,Fred Wudl,Fred Wudl +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a comparative study of electron-donating and electron-withdrawing substituents on C 61, using the Hammett σ m, was performed.
