The three-component annulation reactions of C₆₀, alkyl isocyanide, and dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) or unsymmetric alkynes are investigated to afford cyclopent-2-en-1-imino- and ketenimine methano-[60]fullerene derivatives, which, upon hydration in the presence of acid, yield the corresponding fullerene amides. Dimethyl 2,3-pentadienedioate, the allene counterpart of DMAD, and ethyl buta-2,3-dienoate undergo four-component annulation with C₆₀, alkyl isocyanide, and water under similar conditions to yield cyclopentano-[60]fullerene derivatives with similar amide groups.
