A green fullerene: synthesis and electrochemistry of a Diels–Alder adduct of [60]fullerene with a phthalocyanine
Abstract
Spectroelectrochemical investigations of a Diels–Alder adduct of [60]fullerene with a nickel phthalocyanine show multiple reductions of both covalently bound electroactive moieties as well as characteristic changes of the optical phthalocyanine properties caused by the reduced fullerene.
