Abstract
The photoinduced formation of fullerene anion radicals from mono- and bis-N -methylfulleropyrrolidinium salts in the presence of TiO2 or triethylamine as electron donating substrates was investigated using in situ EPR spectros copy in various solvent mixtures. The photoreduction yield and stability of anion radicals generated are affected by the solvent properties, such as r elative permittivity and hydrogen bond donation ability.
