Abstract:
Atmospheric pressure nonequilibrium plasma jet has been applied to the synthesis of [60]fullerene oxides (C60On) for the first time. C60O and C60O2 were produced and isolated in high yields up to 44% and 21%, respectively. The structural assignment of C60O was confirmed by comparison with the reported spectroscopic data. Theoretical calculations of 13C NMR chemical shifts for eight isomers of C60O2 were performed and compared with the experimental data to assign the most possible structure for the obtained C60O2 dominantly as an e isomer.
