Abstract

The results of a laser flash photolysis investigation of a dendritic methano[60]fullerene octadeca-acid (DA) and its tert-butyl ester (DE) are reported. DE possesses photophysical properties typical of a [60]fullerene mono-adduct with a singlet oxygen quantum yield approaching unity in toluene and a...
