Abstract

Abstract CTV derivatives with aromatic pendants were synthesized and their inclusion abilities for C60 and C70 were examined by UV spectroscopy. CTV derivative with three N-methylpyrrole pendants showed the highest association constant for C60 (48000 dm3mol−1 in benzene). The structure of inclusion complex for C60 with CTV derivative which has six benzoyl pendants has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction.
