Unprecedented photochemical rearrangement of an open-cage C 60 derivative

Upon irradiation of a sulfoxide C derivative with a 17-membered-ring opening, rearrangement of the carbon framework took place to give an unprecedented lactone C derivative with a 14-membered-ring opening, whose structure was unambiguously determined by single crystal X-ray analysis. This reaction i...

Summary:Upon irradiation of a sulfoxide C derivative with a 17-membered-ring opening, rearrangement of the carbon framework took place to give an unprecedented lactone C derivative with a 14-membered-ring opening, whose structure was unambiguously determined by single crystal X-ray analysis. This reaction is completely different from that of the previously reported sulfoxide C and C derivatives with a 13-membered-ring opening.
