Abstract:Fullerenyl radicals (FR) RС 60• and chemiluminescence (CL) are generated in the pres ence of O 2 in С 60 -R 3 Al (R = Et, Bu i ) solutions in toluene (T = 298 K). The FR are formed due to the addition of the R • radical, which is an intermediate of R 3 Al autooxidation, to C 60 . Mass spectroscopy and HPLC were used to identify Et n С 60 H m (n, m = 1-6), Et p C 60 (p = 2-6), and dimer EtС 60 С 60 Et as stable products of FR transformations. As found by ESR, the EtС 60 • radical (g = 2.0037) is also generated … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
