Abstract

Correction for ‘Unexpected formation of 1,2- and 1,4-bismethoxyl Sc3N@Ih-C80 derivatives via regioselective anion addition: an unambiguous structural identification and mechanism study’ by Yajing Hu et al., Chem. Sci., 2021, DOI: 10.1039/d1sc01178b.


The authors regret a mistake in Fig. 3, showing the 13C NMR spectrum of product 1. In the 13C NMR spectrum of 1, the peaks corresponding to the sp3 carbons of the fullerene cage and the methoxy groups were wrongly identified. The correct version of Fig. 3 is shown below.

Fig. 3 (a) 1H NMR spectra of 1 and 2 and (b) 13C NMR spectrum of 1 recorded in CS2 with DMSO-d6 as the external lock solvent.

The description of the 13C NMR spectrum in the Results and discussion section should therefore read: Resonance for the two sp3Ih-C80 cage-carbons bonded to the OCH3 groups appears at 74.49 ppm, while the peak for the two sp3 OCH3 carbons appears at 53.76 ppm.

The description of the 13C NMR results in the Experimental section should therefore read: 74.49 (2C, sp3, Ccage–OCH3), 53.76 ppm (2C, sp3, –OCH3).

These corrections do not influence any conclusions of the original paper.

The Royal Society of Chemistry apologises for these errors and any consequent inconvenience to authors and readers.
