Abstract
Controlled two-step nucleophilic hydroalkylations, hydroarylations as well as hydrostannylations of fullerene-60 (1) and fullerene-70 (2) le ad to defined organodihydrofullerenes Cr60HR and C70HR. NMR investigat ions show that only one isomer of each organodihydrofullerene with C(s ) symmetry is formed. In all cases the addition takes place at a doubl e bond separating two six-membered rings of the fullerene core. In thi s way a variety of organodihydrofullerenes also carrying functional gr oups have been synthesized.
