Preparation of azafullerene derivatives from fullerene-mixed peroxides and single crystal X-ray structures of azafulleroid and azafullerene
Azafullerene was prepared by addition of hydroxylamine to a cage-opened fullerendione derivative and subsequent PCl5 induced rearrangement processes. X-ray structures were obtained for the azafullerene and its azafulleroid precursor.
