H. Liu, Kisato Kokura, Ernst Horn, Kenji Yoza, Tatsuhisa Kato, Shingo Okubo, Kaoru Kobayashi, Shigeru Nagase, Kazunori YamamotoThe photochemical reaction of La@C82 with 2-adamantane-2,3-[3H]-diazirine affords adduct 2, La@C82(Ad), in a quantitative and highly selective manner. The structure of compound 2 is confirmed by ESR, MS, and UV−vis−NIR spectroscopies, and the first X-ray crystallographic characterization of an endohedral monometallofullerene derivative is reported.
