Chemical Reactions and Mechanisms

A rational synthetic approach to the first four-membered ring-containing derivatives of C62 is reported. They were synthesized by an inverse electron demand Diels−Alder reaction of 3,6-diaryl-1,2,4,5-tetrazines with C60 in o-dichlorobenzene, followed by visible light irradiation at reflux. The structure of these nonclassical fullerenes derivatives was determined by X-ray single-crystal diffraction.
