| Abstract: | An unprecedented straightforward route to six‐fold terpyridine ligands around C60, the latter being regioselectively functionalized in pseudo‐octahedral positions using a six‐fold Bingel reaction, is reported. Ruthenium, iridium, and iron complexes have been synthesized, and unambiguously characterized by NMR, MS, and cyclic voltammetry. |
