Synthesis of Heterocycle-Containing [60]Fullerene Derivatives

Abstract

Fullerene functionalization with heterocycles is reviewed, focusing attention on cycloaddition methodology and oxidative heterocyclization. ¹

¹This paper was presented before the Symposium 3 on ‘Expanded Horizons of Fullerene Science and Technology’ organized by L. Y. Chiang, E.Osawa, H. Terrones and M. Saunders at the 4th International Conference on Advanced Materials (ICAM-IV), Aug. 27 to Sept. 1, 1995, Cancun, Mexico.
