Abstract
A facile, environment-friendly, versatile and reproducible approach to the successful oxidation of fullerenes (oxC 60 ) and the formation of highly hydrophilic fullerene derivatives is introduced. This synthesis relies on the widely known Staudenmaier’s method for the oxidation of graphite, to produce both epoxy and hydroxy groups on the surface of fullerenes (C 60 ) and thereby improve the solubility of the fullerene in polar solvents (e.g....
