Recent Advances in the Synthesis, Characterization, and Applications of Fulleropyrrolidines
Recent publications on C-60- and C-70-fulleropyrrolidines are reviewed. Main attention is paid to a series of novel dyads and triads with porphyrins and their metal complexes, ferrocene derivatives, S-containing ligands, calixarenes, crown-ethers, polymers, and enzymes, as well as to relatively simple ligand systems. A certain attention is paid to fulleropyrrolidine polyadducts, multifullerenopyrrolidines, and functionalization of carbon nanotubes with pyrrolidine-containing moieties. Synthesis techniques, physicochemical methods to study the compounds obtained, and their main applications are examined. Representative examples for synthesis and applications are tabulated.
