coupling of [60]fullerene with N-sulfonylaldimines to afford novel 1,2hydrobenzylated [60]fullerene derivatives. We found that both group VIIB metals (cobalt, rhodium, iridium) and group VIIIB metals (nickel, palladium, platinum) perform this coupling reaction. A control experiment in the absence of aldimines produced C60H2, which showed that the reaction might proceed via a [60]fullerene metal complex
