Abstract
A highly soluble star-shaped C60HxBTPVKx copolymer, which has significantly different spectroscopic properties from both free C-60 and n-butyl-termina ted poly(N-vinylcarbazole)[BTPVK], was prepared in heterogeneous medium. C- 13 NMR results provided a strong convincing evidence for the covalent attac hment of BTPVK arms onto the C-60 core, a versatile tecton for dendrimer ch emistry [Camps, X., Schonberger, H. and Hirsch, A., Chem. Eur. J., 1997, 3, 561]. The characterization techniques employed are UV-VIS, FTIR, TGA, ESR, XRD and C-13 NMR spectroscopy. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights r eserved.
