Unprecedented thermal rearrangement of push-pull-chromophore-[60]fullerene conjugates: formation of chiral 1,2,9,12-tetrakis-adducts.
Push-pull-chromophore-[60]fullerene conjugates featuring N,N-dimethylanilino-substituted 1,1,4,4-buta-1,3-dienes directly attached to the carbon sphere are transformed into chiral 1,2,9,12-tetrakis-adducts by a novel thermal rearrangement pathway.
