Molecular satellite dishes: attaching parabolic and planar arenes to heterofullerenes.
The electrophilic attack of C(59)N(+) on arenes such as pyrene, coronene and corannulene leads to the regioselective formation of fullerene conjugates, in which polycyclic aromatics are connected to the spherical heterofullerene by a single sigma-bond.
