Abstract

A green low energy approach avoiding the use of toxic or corrosive reagents/solvents is proposed for the synthesis of potential fullerenol moieties [C<sub>60</sub>(OH)<sub>n</sub>·<italic>m</italic>H<sub>2</sub>O], in which C<sub>60</sub> in dil. H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> (30%) aqueous media was ultrasonicated (20 kHz, 200 W) at 30% amplitude for 1 h.
