Research Abstract |
This research aims to develop novel chemical transformations promoted by carbon-based nano cavity materials which are prepared by multiple cage scission -reactions of [60]fullerene. We have focused on (1) activations and chemical transformations of the trapped molecules inside nano cavities and (2) chemical transformations based on the unusual reactivity characteristic of nano cavity materials, especially around the opening moieties (orifices). In respect to the latter, oxidative dimerization reactions of benzylamines proceed in the presence of catalytic amount of a cavity material and the corresponding imines are obtained in good yields.
