摘要
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggest significantly different oxidation behaviour for phosphorus-doped heterofullerenes compared to their pure and nitrogen-doped counterparts, due to formation of a phosphene oxide. This oxide is not thermally labile, suggesting stable phosphofullerenes are likely to be C59POH and (C59PO)(2). In contrast, azafullerenes form stable epoxides when oxidised. We calculate the effect of oxidation on radical pairing and hydrogen passivation. Notably while the C59N center dot radical behaves as a donor, C59PO center dot will be an acceptor.
