One of the attractive properties of the hollow carbon clusters, known as fullerenes, is the
possibility to use them as robust containers for other species. Although an IUPAC …

This review covers the use of 2-azaallyl anions, 2-azaallyl cations, and 2-azaallyl radicals in
organic synthesis up through June 2018. Particular attention is paid to both foundational …

Photosynthesis is used by nature to convert light energy into chemical energy in some living
systems. In such a process, a cascade of very efficient, short-range energy and electron …

Endohedral metallofullerenes (EMFs), a new class of hybrid molecules formed by
encapsulation of metallic species inside fullerene cages, exhibit unique properties that differ …

Organic electrochemistry is concerned with the reduction and oxidation of organic molecules
at electrodes. Although it is now more than 200 years ago that the so-called Volta pile was …

Ever since the first experimental evidence of the existence of endohedral metallofullerenes
(EMFs) was obtained, the search for carbon cages with encapsulated metals and small …

The design of new organic functional molecules able to harvest sun light and efficiently
undergo photon to current energy conversion processes is at the forefront of chemical …

In this review article, we highlight recent advances in the field of solar energy conversion at
a molecular level. We focus mainly on investigations regarding fullerenes as well as …

This review highlights the combined effort of the Torres and Guldi groups in the preparation
and study of porphyrinoid-based photo-and electro-active systems. The perfect synergy …

Recent breakthroughs achieved in the chemical functionalization of endohedral
metallofullerenes (EMFs), especially single crystallographic X-ray characterizations of their …
