Novel optically active organometallic derivatives of fullerenes with non-central types of chirality in addends: synthetic and CD studies

Palladium and platinum complexes of C60 and C70 possessing the enantiomeric ligand (−)-Bitianp with axial chirality and a pyrrolidino[60]fullerene bearing a planar chiral organometallic π-complex group in the heterocyclic ring have been synthesized and their CD spectra recorded.
