Synthesis of germanium encapsulated fullerene

A method has been described for encapsulating Ge in a fullerene cage using GeO2 and a graphite composite rod as anode and graphite as cathode. Annealing in an inert atmosphere before arcing, and the amount of GeO2 in the rod determin

CF2-Bridged C60 Fullerene Dimers and their Optical Transitions

Fullerene dyads bridged with perfluorinated linking groups have been synthesized through a modified arc-discharge procedure. The addition of Teflon inside an arc-discharge reactor leads to the formation of dyads, consisting of two C60 fullerenes bridged by CF2 groups. The incorporation of bridging groups containing electronegative atoms lead to different energy levels and to new features in the photoluminescence spectrum. A suppression of the singlet oxygen photosensitization indicated that the radiative decay from singlet-to-singlet state is favoured against the intersystem crossing singlet-to-triplet transition.

Unusual multistep reaction of C70Cl10 with thiols producing C70[SR]5H

We report a reaction of the chlorofullerene C70Cl10 with thiols producing C70[SR]5H with all organic addends attached around one central pentagon at the pole of the C70 cage. This reaction was shown to proceed via a complicated radical pathway, presumably involving addition, substitution, rearrangement, and/or elimination steps. The obtained C70[SR]5H products were shown to be very unstable and undergo quantitative decomposition to pristine C70, RSSR, and RSH at elevated temperatures (e.g., 50 °C). Quantum chemical calculations and NMR spectroscopy data showed that cleavage of organic addends from the fullerene cage could be induced by solvation effects in solution.
