First tether-directed regioselective bis-functionalisation of C70: effects of cation complexation on the redox properties of diastereoisomeric fullerene crown ether conjugates
Abstract
The covalently templated bis-functionalisation of C70, employing a dibenzo-18-crown-6 tether, proceeds with complete regiospecificity and provides a bis-addition pattern which is disfavoured in sequential transformations.
