Abstract
The reaction of [60]fullerene with a dimethylsulfonium alpha -formylalkylid e gave a novel methano[60]fullerene having a formyl group at the bridge-hea d carbon, This 2.2-[60]fulleroalkanal was readily converted into a variety of N-aryl-2,2-[60]fulleroaldimines by condensation with aromatic amines: on e of them showed efficient quenching of the fluorescence of the [60]fullere ne core, due to a photoinduced intramolecular electron transfer.
