Synthesis and functionalization of [60]fullerene-fused imidazolines

Org Lett. 2013 Apr 5;15(7):1532-5. doi: 10.1021/ol400319w. Epub 2013 Mar 15.

Abstract

The silver carbonate promoted reaction of [60]fullerene with (Z)-N-arylbenzamidines afforded the unprecedented C60-fused imidazoline derivatives in high yields. Substrates with both electron-donating and -withdrawing groups on aromatic rings could be employed. In addition, the electrochemistry and further selective functionalization of the obtained C60-fused imidazolines were investigated.
