The Solid-State Mechanochemical Reaction of Fullerene C60

Abstract
The solid-state mechanochemical reaction of fullerene C60 by the use of a high-speed vibration milling technique has been applied to the nucleophilic addition of an organozinc reagent to C60, [4+2] cycloaddition of C60 with condensed aromatic hydrocarbons, 1,3-dipolar addition of C60 with organic azides, and dimerization of C60.
