Abstract
Phenylhydrazine reduction of hexa(tetraanilino)[60]fullerene and hexa(hexadecaanilino)[60]fullerene emeraldines produced the corresponding leucoemeraldines. Photoexcitation of hexa(oligoanilino)[60]fullerene leucoemeraldine under N2 induces electron transfer from benzenoid moieties of arms to C60 that regenerated the emeraldine structure in oligomers.
