Reaction of [60]fullerene with α-alkoxyl/acyloxyl/phenolyl ketoxime: unusual C-C and C-O bond cleavage

Reaction of [60]fullerene with α-alkoxyl/phenolyl/acyloxyl ketoxime in the presence of sodium carbonate afforded fulleroisoxazoline or fullerooxazine derivatives via C-C or C-O bond cleavage respectively. O2 was proved to be essential to the reaction.
