Supramolecular masks for the regioselective synthesis of Diels-Alder hetero-tris-adduct C60 fullerene

CCCristina CastanyerTPTània PèlachsERElias Romero

Key Points

  • The aim is to develop a method for regioselective functionalization of C60 fullerenes using a Diels-Alder approach.
  • Utilized supramolecular masks to direct the functionalization of C60.
  • Applied Ru-catalyzed cycloisomerization to introduce the first addend.
  • Executed sequential Diels-Alder cycloaddition for complete functionalization.
  • Successfully achieved regioselective hetero-tris-functionalization of C60 fullerenes.
  • Confirmed the efficacy of the synthetic strategy with high yields in the Diels-Alder process.

Abstract

Herein, we report the regioselective hetero-tris-functionalization of fullerenes via a sequential Diels-Alder cycloaddition strategy. The first addend is introduced onto C60 through a cascade process involving a Ru-catalyzed cycloisomerization of...
