RT Journal Article T1 Reactions of [60]fullerene with alkynes promoted by OH− A1 Chang, Wei-Wei A1 He, Fa-Gui A1 García Peñas, Alberto A1 Shekh, Mehdihasan I. A1 Li, Zong-Jun AB In the current work, the reactions of [60]fullerene with alkynes promoted by OH− (base) are addressed. The treatment of C60 with alkynes in the presence of TBAOH produces alkynylation products (R-C60–H) with high selectivity in o-DCB at 100 °C. Plausible reaction mechanisms were proposed. This work provides a convenient and environmental friendly method for the functionalization of fullerenes.
