Abstract
The reaction of C-60 fullerene with carboalkoxycarbenoids generated by Rh-2(OAc)(4)-catalyzed decomposition of alpha-diazoester precursors i s reported. This reaction is the first example of a transition metal c atalyzed carbenoid reaction with fullerene and represents a significat ive improvement in terms of reaction conditions, selectivity of the pr oducts obtained, and yields over previously reported methods.
