Six aza[60]fullerene monoadducts were synthesized by the thermal reaction between the azafullerene radical C59N· and 9-alkyl-substituted fluorenes, 9,10-dihydroanthracene, or xanthene. Unlike fluorenes, dihydroanthracene, and xanthene, the structurally related substituted diphenylmethanes, ethylbenzene, cumene, 1,2-diphenylethane, 5,6,11,12-tetrahydrodibenzo[a,e]cyclooctene, 10,11-dihydro-5H-dibenzo[a,d] cycloheptene, 9-methylanthracene, and 9-benzylanthracene do not lead to the isolation of azafullerene monoadducts. Moreover, 1,2-dichlorobenzene, the most commonly utilized solvent for azafullerene reactions, reacts slowly with the azafullerenyl radical C59N· affording the corresponding aza[60]fullerene monoadduct.
