Synthesis of C60H2 by rhodium-catalyzed hydrogenation of C60
L Becker et al. J Org Chem. 1993.
Abstract
Reduction of C60 with rhodium(0) on alumina and hydrogen in deuterated benzene (C6D6) at ambient temperature and pressure yields a mixture of hydrogenated compounds; C60H2 has been characterized as the major product in 14% yield based on 1H NMR.
