Abstract

Multiply-carbonylated fullerene derivatives were found to work as one component in frustrated Lewis pairs which caused an Si–H bond activation in the presence of B(C₆F₅)₃, leading to the carbonyl hydrogenation in up to 99% yield. The Lewis acid-mediated reductive arylation also took place to furnish a corresponding ketal derivative.
