Novel synthetic route to fluorofullerenes: reaction with binary and complex lead fluorides

We have recently developed methods of preparation of fluorofullerenes with specific fluorine content. Our previous successful synthesis of C₆₀F₃₆ and C₆₀F₁₈ with the use of transition metal fluorides inspired us to probe other high oxidation metal fluorides. In this work we report on the use of the binary lead fluorides (PbF₂, PbF₄, Pb₂F₆) and their complexes with alkali metal and alkaline earth metal fluorides (M₂PbF₆, M₃PbF₇ and M′PbF₆) as fluorinating reagents for fullerenes.     

EFFICIENT POLYMER PHOTOVOLTAIC DEVICES BASED ON POLYMER D-A BLENDS*

Recent work demonstrated that efficient solar-energy conversion could be achieved in polymer photovoltaic cells(PVCs) based on interpenetrating bi-continuous networks. In this paper we present a comprehensive study on improvingenergy conversion efficiencies of PVCs based on composite films of MEHPPV and fullerene derivatives. Carrier collectionefficiency of ca. 30% el/ph and energy conversion efficiency of 3.9% were achieved at 500 nm. At reverse bias of 15 V, thephotosensitivity reached 0.8 A/W, corresponding to a quantum efficiency over 100% el/ph. These results suggest that highefficiency photoelectric conversion can be achieved in polymer devices with M-P-M structure. These devices are promisingfor practical applications such as plastic solar cells and plastic photodetectors.

C60异噁唑环衍生物的结构、电子光谱和非线性光学性质的研究

The AM1 semiempirical calculation method was employed to study the structures and electronic properties of a series of isoxazolo fullerene derivatives. Based on the AM1 geometry optimization, the electronic spectra of molecules were studied by using ZINDO/CIS methods. The results indicated the HOMO LUMO energy gaps of those isoxazolo fullerenes were lower than that of C60. There existed the intramolecular electron transfer from the additional section to C60 moiety. The electronic spectrum data showed that the exception of the absorption was beyond 400 nm.The results were in good accordance with the experiment results. Nonlinear optical susceptibilities α, β and γ of molecules were calculated according to Finite Field(FF)/AM1, and the influence of molecular structures on nonlinear optical properties was examined.

基于曲率和电子结构的掺杂C50和C70富勒烯的稳定性研究

使用密度泛函理论(DFT)-B3LYP/6-31G^*方法研究了B、N、Si、P和Co在C₅₀和C₇₀中的掺杂能和电子结构, 并基于曲率理论和电子结构探讨了掺杂富勒烯的结构稳定性. 计算结果表明, 掺杂能随着原子曲率的增大而减小, 随着掺杂物种原子半径的增大而增大, B、N、P和Co的掺杂有利于C₅₀结构的稳定, 而B和N的掺杂不利于C₇₀结构的稳定; 除了用于反映原子活性的曲率主要决定掺杂反应性, 各不等价碳原子在C₅₀和C₇₀的最高占据分子轨道(HOMO)中所占成分对掺杂能的影响也很大, 且其成分越大越有利于掺杂. 此外, 掺杂原子得失电子情况与其电负性有关. 本工作将为富勒烯结构稳定性的研究提供理论依据.     

Chromophoric interactions in [60]fullerene–porphyrin dyads investigated by solid-state UV–Vis and IR spectroscopies

Solid-state electronic (UV–Vis) and vibrational (IR) spectra of several fullerene–porphyrin conjugates were recorded in KBr in the spectral range between 400 and 50,000 cm⁻¹. It was observed that significant redistribution of the charges occurs in both fullerene and porphyrin moieties upon covalent linkage. This effect is mainly observed as shifts of both electronic and vibrational bands in comparison with the respective free porphyrin and fullerene features. Variable temperature IR measurements were also performed.     

Synthesis of a proline-rich [60]fullerene peptide with potential biological activity

A proline-rich [60]fullerene peptide was synthesized by use of (i) a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of an N-substituted glycine derivative to [60]fullerene, (ii) esterification of the isolated alcohol with the C-terminal amino acid of the desired peptide sequence, and finally (iii) coupling of the remaining hexapeptide to give the final product 8 as a TFA salt, with oxidized methionine. Product 8 was found to be biologically active against sera from MCTD and SLE patients (ELISA experiment).
