Abstract

Dendrons with dodecyl terminal groups joined to benzyloxy moieties were attached to a cyclotriveratrylene core. The dendrimers were used in Bingel cyclopropanation reaction with the fullerene C₆₀. The structure of the synthesized dendrimers was confirmed by ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and elemental analysis.

 

Keywords: Cyclotriveratrylene, fullerene C60, cyclopropanation reaction, dendrimers
