Reactions of [60]fullerene with alkynes promoted by OH.

ABSTRACT: In the current work, the reactions of [60]fullerene with alkynes promoted by OH^- (base) are addressed. The treatment of C₆₀ with alkynes in the presence of TBAOH produces alkynylation products (R-C₆₀-H) with high selectivity in o-DCB at 100 °C. Plausible reaction mechanisms were proposed. This work provides a convenient and environmental friendly method for the functionalization of fullerenes.

Base-iodine-promoted metal-catalyst-free reactions of [60]fullerene with β-keto esters for the selective formation of [60]fullerene derivatives.

Project description:In this study, methanofullerenes and 2',3'-dihydrofuran C60 derivatives were selectively synthesized in high yields via the reactions of C60 with β-keto esters under mild conditions by controlling the addition sequence and molar ratio of iodine and base. The structures of the products were determined by spectroscopic characterization. Moreover, a possible reaction mechanism for the selective formation of fullerene derivatives was proposed.

Fullerene C60 promoted photochemical hydroamination reactions of an electron deficient alkyne with trimethylsilyl group containing tertiary N-alkylbenzylamines.

Project description:C60-promoted photoaddition reactions of both trimethylsilyl- and a variety of alkyl group containing tertiary benzylamines (i.e., N-α-trimethylsilyl-N-alkylbenzylamines) with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) were carried out to explore the synthetic utility of trimethylsilyl group containing tertiary amines as a substrate in the photochemical hydroamination reactions with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD). The results showed that photoreactions of all the trimethylsilyl containing N-alkylbenzylamines with DMAD, under an O2-purged environment, produced non-silyl containing enamines efficiently through a pathway involving addition of secondary amines to DMAD, the former of which are produced by hydrolytic cleavage of in situ formed iminium ions. Exceptionally, five-membered N-heterocyclic rings, pyrroles, could be produced competitively in photoreaction of bulky alkyl (i.e., tert-butyl) group substituted benzylamines through a pathway involving 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides to DMAD. Furthermore, C60-sensitized photochemical reactions of non-silyl containing benzylamines with DMAD under oxygenated conditions took place in a less efficient and non-regioselective manner to produce enamine photoadducts. The observations made in this study show that regioselectivity of C60-promoted photochemical reactions of N-α-trimethylsilyl-N-alkylbenzylamines, leading to formation of secondary amines, can be controlled by the presence of the trimethylsilyl group, and that these trimethylsilyl containing tertiary amines can serve as a precursor of secondary amines for hydroamination reactions with a variety of electron deficient acetylenes.

A retro Baeyer-Villiger reaction: electrochemical reduction of [60]fullerene-fused lactones to [60]fullerene-fused ketones.

Project description:A highly efficient electrochemical reduction of [60]fullerene-fused lactones to [60]fullerene-fused ketones, a formal process of retro Baeyer-Villiger reaction, has been achieved for the first time. The electrochemically generated dianionic [60]fullerene-fused lactones can be transformed into [60]fullerene-fused ketones in the presence of acetic acid in 85-91% yields. Control experiments have been performed to elucidate the reaction mechanism. The products have been characterized with spectroscopic data and single-crystal X-ray analysis. Moreover, the electrochemical properties have also been investigated.

Supramolecular frameworks based on [60]fullerene hexakisadducts.

Project description:[60]Fullerene hexakisadducts possessing 12 carboxylic acid side chains form crystalline hydrogen-bonding frameworks in the solid state. Depending on the length of the linker between the reactive sites and the malonate units, the distance of the [60]fullerene nodes and thereby the spacing of the frameworks can be controlled and for the most elongated derivative, continuous channels are obtained within the structure. Stability, structural integrity and porosity of the material were investigated by powder X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetry and sorption measurements.

Squeezing formaldehyde into C60 fullerene.

Project description:The cavity inside fullerene C60 provides a highly symmetric and inert environment for housing atoms and small molecules. Here we report the encapsulation of formaldehyde inside C60 by molecular surgery, yielding the supermolecular complex CH2O@C60, despite the 4.4 Å van der Waals length of CH2O exceeding the 3.7 Å internal diameter of C60. The presence of CH2O significantly reduces the cage HOMO-LUMO gap. Nuclear spin-spin couplings are observed between the fullerene host and the formaldehyde guest. The rapid spin-lattice relaxation of the formaldehyde 13C nuclei is attributed to a dominant spin-rotation mechanism. Despite being squeezed so tightly, the encapsulated formaldehyde molecules rotate freely about their long axes even at cryogenic temperatures, allowing observation of the ortho-to-para spin isomer conversion by infrared spectroscopy. The particle in a box nature of the system is demonstrated by the observation of two quantised translational modes in the cryogenic THz spectra.

Electrochemically Promoted Benzylation of [60]Fullerooxazolidinone.

Project description:Benzylation of the electrochemically generated dianion from N-p-tolyl-[60]fullerooxazolidinone with benzyl bromide provides three products with different addition patterns. The product distribution can be dramatically altered by varying the reaction conditions. Based on spectral characterizations, these products have been assigned as mono-benzylated 1,4-adduct and bis-benzylated 1,2,3,16- and 1,4,9,25-adducts, respectively. The assigned 1,2,3,16-adduct has been further established by X-ray diffraction analysis. It is believed that the 1,4-adduct is obtained by decarboxylative benzylation of the dianionic species, while bis-benzylated 1,2,3,16- and 1,4,9,25-adducts are achieved via a rearrangement process. In addition, the electrochemical properties of these products have been studied.

A 3D Peptide/[60]Fullerene Hybrid for Multivalent Recognition.

Project description:Fully substituted peptide/[60]fullerene hexakis-adducts offer an excellent opportunity for multivalent protein recognition. In contrast to monofunctionalized fullerene hybrids, peptide/[60]fullerene hexakis-adducts display multiple copies of a peptide in close spatial proximity and in the three dimensions of space. High affinity peptide binders for almost any target can be currently identified by in vitro evolution techniques, often providing synthetically simpler alternatives to natural ligands. However, despite the potential of peptide/[60]fullerene hexakis-adducts, these promising conjugates have not been reported to date. Here we present a synthetic strategy for the construction of 3D multivalent hybrids that are able to bind with high affinity the E-selectin. The here synthesized fully substituted peptide/[60]fullerene hybrids and their multivalent recognition of natural receptors constitute a proof of principle for their future application as functional biocompatible materials.

Enhanced Thermoelectricity in Metal-[60]Fullerene-Graphene Molecular Junctions.

Project description:The thermoelectric properties of molecular junctions consisting of a metal Pt electrode contacting [60]fullerene derivatives covalently bound to a graphene electrode have been studied by using a conducting-probe atomic force microscope (c-AFM). The [60]fullerene derivatives are covalently linked to the graphene via two meta-connected phenyl rings, two para-connected phenyl rings, or a single phenyl ring. We find that the magnitude of the Seebeck coefficient is up to nine times larger than that of Au-C60-Pt molecular junctions. Moreover, the sign of the thermopower can be either positive or negative depending on the details of the binding geometry and on the local value of the Fermi energy. Our results demonstrate the potential of using graphene electrodes for controlling and enhancing the thermoelectric properties of molecular junctions and confirm the outstanding performance of [60]fullerene derivatives.

Synthesis of inter-[60]fullerene conjugates with inherent chirality.

Project description:Coalescence of [60]fullerenes potentially produces hypothetical nanocarbon assemblies with non-naturally occurring topologies. Since the discovery of [60]fullerene in 1985, coalesced [60]fullerene oligomers have only been observed as transient species by transmission electron microscopy during an oligomerization process under a high electron acceleration voltage. Herein, we showcase the rational synthesis of covalent assemblies consisting of inherently chiral open-[60]fullerenes. The crystallographic analyses unveiled double-caged structures of non-conjugated and conjugated inter-[60]fullerene hybrids, in which the two [60]fullerene cages are bounds to each other through a covalent linkage. The former one further assembles via a heterochiral recognition so that four carbon cages are arranged in a tetrahedral manner both in solution and solid state. Reflecting radially-conjugated double π-surface nature, the inter-[60]fullerene conjugate exhibits strong electronic communication in its reduced states, intense absorption behavior, and chiroptical activity with a dissymmetry factor of 0.21 (at 674 nm) which breaks the record for known chiral organic molecules.
