Efficient cyclopropanation of C60 starting from malonates

Abstract

The direct treatment of C60 with malonates in the presence of CBr4 and diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) leads to an efficient conversion to methanofullerenes, which is demonstrated with the syntheses of monoadducts and highly symmetric hexaadducts in good yields.
