Unexpected reactions of [60]fullerene involving tertiary amines and insight into the reaction mechanisms.

Thermal reactions of [60]fullerene with amino acid ester hydrochlorides and triethylamine in o-dichlorobenzene at reflux afforded pyrrolidinofullerene derivatives containing the CH(3)CH moiety and originating from triethylamine through an unusual C-N bond cleavage. Detailed investigation of these thermal reactions resulted in the discovery of unprecedented reactions between C(60) and tertiary amines and of reactions of C(60) with tertiary amines and aldehydes, giving cyclopentafullerene derivatives with high stereoselectivity. Plausible reaction mechanisms for the product formation involving the uncommon C-N bond cleavage of tertiary amines were proposed on the basis of extensive experimental results.

Electronic origin for enhanced nonlinear optical response of complexes from tetraalkylammonium halide and carbon tetrabromide: electrostatic potentials of intermolecular donor-acceptor dyads.

Electronic origin for nonresonant enhancement of nonlinear optical response in the complexes formed from tetraalkylammonium halide and carbon tetrabromide is provided in view of electrostatic potentials of intermolecular donor (halide ion)-acceptor (CBr(4)). The calculated electrostatic potentials of donor-acceptor range from -4.83 to -7.70 kcal mol(-1) and show a decreasing order of [Et(4)Cl(-)Br] > [Et(4)Br(-)Br] congruent with [Et(4)I(-)Br] > [Bu(4)Br(-)Br]. The calculated second-order susceptibilities of solid complexes are in an increasing order of [NEt(4)ClCBr(4)] < [NEt(4)BrCBr(4)] congruent with [NEt(4)ICBr(4)] < [NBu(4)BrCBr(4)C(3)H(6)O]. It has been shown that the donor/acceptor dyads make the exclusive contribution to nonlinear optical response. A large size of halide or tetraalkylammonium ion results in a small electrostatic potential and large nonlinear optical response in these charge-transfer complexes. It indicates that a small supermolecular interaction will create a large nonlinear optical response, and it gives a clue to design the molecular complexes with large non-linear optical susceptibility.
