, Germany 10.3762/bjoc.13.1 Abstract [60]Fullerene hexakisadducts possessing 12 carboxylic acid side chains form crystalline hydrogen-bonding frameworks in the solid state. Depending on the length of the linker between the reactive sites and the malonate units, the distance of the [60]fullerene nodes and

The utilization of confined nanospace in rigid frameworks [1], which are derived from small molecular precursors under dynamic conditions, has emerged as a novel design paradigm for functional
strengthen the non-covalent interactions in a cooperative manner. In this regard, [60]fullerene hexakisadducts [47], which can arrange up to twelve functional sites with icosahedral symmetry, exhibit one of the highest degrees of functionalization for organic molecules (see Figure 1). In recent years, a
