Abstract

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>Heating of C60Me5Br in toluene in the presence of an iridium catalyst and triethylamine results in benzylation of the fullerene core to yield C60Me5CH2C6H5. The reaction is general for various alkylarenes, and probably takes place via iridium-catalyzed activation of a benzylic C–H bond.</jats:p>
