Abstract
It was established by ESR that trimethylaminoboryl radicals formed by UV irradiation of BH3NMe6w in the presence of di-tert-butyl peroxide in saturated benzene solutions of fullerene C60, add to fullerenes to give C60-BH2NMe3 spin-adducts. The latter undergo dimerization with a rate constant ofca. 2.5 · 106 L mol−1 s−1. A more prolonged photolysis of excess BH3NMe3 in a benzene solution of C60 results in multiple addition of the trimethylaminoboryl radicals to the fullerene to give stable radicals C60[BH2NMe3]n.
