- Abstract
Tris9?,10?dimethyl9,10ethanoanthracene11?,12?:?1,9;11?,12?:?16,17;11???,12???:?30,315,6fullerene C60, the orthogonal e,e,etrisadduct of C60and 9,10dimethylanthracene, was obtained from 4+2cycloaddition Diels–Alderreaction at room temperature. The thermally unstable orange red e,e,etrisadduct was purified by chromatography and was isolated in the form of red monoclinic crystals. Its C3symmetric addition pattern was established spectroscopically. Its structure could be further investigated by single crystal Xray diffraction. The e,e,etrisadduct of C60and 9,10dimethylanthracene has earlier been suggested as intermediate and reversibly formed critical component in ‘template directed’ addition reactions of C60. This previously elusive compound has now been isolated and structurally characterized.
