Abstract
Cyclometallation of C60 fullerene with excess AlEt3 in the presence of Cp2ZrCl2 (2 mol % with respect to [Al]) in a toluene solution at 22–23 °C was carried out. The reaction gave 2,3-fullerene-substituted aluminacyclopentanes, whose hydrolysis led to a mixture of hydrogen-containing ethylfullerenes of the type H m C60Et m containing 1 to 12 ethyl groups.
