Pressure-induced annulative orifice closure of a cage-opened C60 derivative

Abstract

A cage-opened C60 derivative was found to undergo an unusual annulative orifice-closure reaction under high-pressure conditions, in which the orifice size changed from a 16- to a 13-membered ring. The structure was different from that obtained by the reaction at 1 atm. The theoretical calculations suggested that the formation of the former one is thermodynamically favored.
