Hydrogenation of cage-opened C60 derivatives mediated by frustrated Lewis pairs

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.
