Excited-state properties of C(60) fullerene derivatives

D M Guldi et al. Acc Chem Res. 2000 Oct.

Abstract

This Account reviews our main achievements in the field of excited-state properties of fullerene derivatives. The photosensitizing and electron-acceptor features of some relevant classes of functionalized fullerene materials are highlighted, considering the impact of functionalization on fullerene characteristics. In addition, the unique optimization in terms of redox potentials, water-solubility, and singlet oxygen generation is presented for several novel fullerene-based materials.
