METHOD OF OBTAINING POLYHYDRO[60]FULLERENES

摘要

FIELD: chemistry. ^ SUBSTANCE: invention concerns method of obtaining polyhydro[60]fullerenes of formula (1): , involving fullerene C60 interaction with diisobutylaluminum hydride (i-Bu2AlH) in the presence of zirconium tetrachloride catalyst (ZrCl4) at molar ratio of C60:i-Bu2AlH:ZrCl4=1:(55-65):(0.15-0.25), preferably 1:60:0.20, in argon atmosphere in the absence of light at room temperature of (20-21°C) and atmospheric pressure in toluene medium for 1-5 hours, with further hydrolysis of reaction mass. The method allows obtaining 73-87% of polyhydro[60]fullerene output after reaction mass hydrolysis. ^ EFFECT: improved method. ^ 7 ex, 1 tbl
