Abstract

The trianion of C60 reacts readily with the commonly used electrochemical solvent dichloromethane to form methanofullerenes of the type C60>(CH2)n, signaling a cautionary warning against the use of this solvent for electrochemical studies of fullerenes and opening up a new synthetic avenue for these adducts.
