As various fullerene derivatives have been developed, it is necessary to explore their photophysical properties for potential use in photoelectronics and medicine. Here, we address the photophysical properties of newly synthesized water-soluble fullerene-based nanoparticles and polyhydroxylated fullerene as a representative water-soluble fullerene derivative. They show broad emission band arisi...

A highly-ordered 3D covalent fullerene framework is presented with a structure based on octahedrally functionalized fullerene building blocks in which every fullerene is separated from the next by six functional groups and whose mesoporosity is controlled by cooperative self-assembly with a liquid-crystalline block copolymer. The new fullerene-framework material was obtained in the form of supp...

In this study, the influence of fullerene junction on the chemical features of 16 different drugs including Captopril, Clonidine, Methyldopa, Naphazoline, Oxymetazoline, Tetrahydrozoline, Xylometazoline, Tolazoline, Clemastine, Procyclidine, Tyramine, Nicotine, Dextroamphetamine, Fluoxetine, Metoprolol and Enalapril was investigated computationally. For this purpose, the mentioned drugs were pl...

WO3-treated fullerene/TiO2 composites (WO3-fullerene/TiO2) were prepared using a sol-gel method. The composite obtained was characterized by BET surface area measurements, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray analysis, transmission electron microscopy, and UV-vis analysis. A methyl orange (MO) solution under visible light irradiation was used to determine the...

An operation on trivalent graphs leads from the truncated cube to buckminsterfullerene, and C60 is the only fullerene with disjoint pentagons which can be obtained by this method. The construction and the proof emphasize maximal independent sets that contain two fths of the vertices of trivalent graphs. In the case of C60, these sets de ne the structure of the experimentally obtained bromofulle...

purpose: to evaluate the effect of fullerene on chemical properties of naphazoline drug in   water by density functional theory (dft) methods.   materials and methods: naphazoline belongs to the imidazoline class of sympathomimetics.   the present study on naphazoline drug and its fullerene connected form were carried out using   computerized calculations of gaussian program in b3lyp/6-31g leve...

In this work, a double-buffer film of TiOx coated with CsOx (TiOx/CsOx) was solution prepared to be applied in poly(3-hexylthiophene):indene-C60 bisadduct (P3HT:ICBA) and P3HT:[6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) inverted polymer solar cells (PSCs). Compared with TiOx films and CsOx films, the TiOx/CsOx double-buffer film exhibited a favorable energy-level alignment among TiOx, CsO...

Twelve chiral and achiral self-assembling dendrons have been grafted onto a [60]fullerene hexa-adduct core by copper-catalyzed alkyne azide “click” cycloaddition. The structure adopted by these compounds was determined by the self-assembling peripheral dendrons. These twelve dendrons mediate the selforganisation of the dendronized [60]fullerene into a disc-shaped structure containing the [60]fu...

Metallocene-bridged [60]fullerene triads and cyclised metallocene-[60]fullerene diads are formed via [3 + 2] cycloaddition reactions of [60]fullerene with metallocene dialdehyde and an amino acid. In the case of cyclic diads only one regioisomer is formed, as determined by UV-vis and NMR spectroscopic studies. These compounds have both electron donor (metallocene) and acceptor ([60]fullerene) c...

An operation on trivalent graphs leads from the truncated cube to buckminsterfullerene, and C60 is the only fullerene with disjoint pentagons which can be obtained by this method. The construction and the proof emphasize maximal independent sets that contains two fifths of vertices of trivalent graphs. In the case of C60 these sets define the structure of experimentally obtained bromofullerene ...
