Abstract

Probably the most prominent features of fullerenes are their highly symmetrical three-dimensional structure and the extended À-system [1–6]. These are strongly reflected in the entire chemistry of this class of carbon allotropes and derivatized compounds derived therefrom. Among those processes which have become especially attractive are electron and energy transfer reactions. They are essentially based on the fullerenes’ capacity to accommodate several electrons per molecule (up to 6), but also on the possibility to oxidize them via removal of an electron, and to excite them into easily detectable singlet and triplet states [7, 8]. A further parameter facilitating reactivity is the pyramidalization of the carbon atoms which renders them excellent targets for electrophilic attack by free radicals [9].
