Catalytic cycloaddition of diazo compounds based on pharmacologically significant and natural compounds to C₆₀-fullerene

The data obtained by the authors in the field of carbon cluster chemistry, namely, the catalytic cycloaddition of diazo compounds of modern pharmacologically significant and natural compounds to C₆₀-fullerene under the action of complex Pd-catalysts, are summarized. Cycloaddition reactions of diazoacetates, diazoamides, diazoketones with C₆₀-fullerene, catalyzed by Pd(acac)2-PPh3-Et3Al, with selective formation of methano- and pyrazolinofullerenes, new and promising classes of biologically active derivatives of C₆₀-fullerenes
