Abstract

Possible cycloaddition sites in the heptagon-containing fullerene LaSc2N@Cs(hept)-C80 are studied computationally. Thermodynamically controlled Prato addition is predicted to proceed regioselectively across the pentagon/pentagon (p/p) edges, whereas in the kinetically-controlled Bingel-Hirsch reaction the most reactive are carbons next to the p/p edge.
