TLDR
Treatment of C60 with osmium tetroxide and pyridine gives the osmate ester (2:1 adduct) establishing that oxygen functionality can be added to C60 without disrupting the carbon framework.Abstract:

The Chemistry of Fullerenes
TL;DR: The fullerenes instead undergo a wide variety of reactions characteristic of alkenes as mentioned in this paper, and the many derivatives of C60 and C70 have been reported to offer new directions for organic chemistry.
