First tether-directed regioselective bis-functionalisation of C-70: effects of cation complexation on the redox properties of diastereoisomeric fullerene crown ether conjugates
Mj. Van Eis et al., First tether-directed regioselective bis-functionalisation of C-70: effects of cation complexation on the redox properties of diastereoisomeric fullerene crown ether conjugates, CHEM COMMUN, (19), 2000, pp. 1859-1860
The covalently templated bis-functionalisation of C-70, employing a dibenzo
-18-crown-6 tether, proceeds with complete regiospecificity and provides a
bis-addition pattern which is disfavoured in sequential transformations.
