Spirans contain at least two rings, which share one carbon atom called the spirocarbon
atom. 1 Synthetic and natural spirocarbocycles attract the attention of organic chemists due …

Carbon is the most prominent element of state-of-the-art nanoscience. Kroto, Curl, and
Smalley were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1996 for discovery of fullerenes. 1− 4 …

Diazo compounds are versatile organic compounds and have become increasingly
important in organic synthesis and many other fields. In particular, α-diazocarbonyl …

Transition metal-promoted or catalyzed cyclization reactions represent one of the most
powerful alternatives to design and prepare new fullerene-based materials fused to carbo …

For the first time, a sonochemical method has been developed for the structural
rearrangement of [5, 6]-open mono-and poly adducts of fullerene C60 containing spirocyclic …

Experimental and theoretical data on the reactions of different diazo compounds
(diazomethane, its derivatives, cyclic diazo compounds and diazocarbonyl compounds) with …

A dithienylethene-containing fullerocyclopropane was synthesized by the catalytic reaction
of the carbon cluster with diazoalkane generated in situ by the oxidation of a corresponding …

New fullerene derivatives keep attracting attention of chemists due to their possible
applications. Fullerene adducts with saturated polycyclic hydrocarbons represent one of the …

The cycloaddition of diazothioates to fullerene C60 has been investigated under thermal
and catalytic conditions. The reaction between C60 and α-non-substituted diazothioates …
