An "Umpolung Relay" Strategy: One-Pot, Twice Polarity Inversion Cascade Synthesis of Diversified [60]Fulleroindoles.

An "umpolung relay" strategy, which includes an one-pot, twice polarity inversion cascade of C60 via carbanion and carbocation polarity reversed relay pathway, has been developed for the synthesis of a diverse range of novel [60]fulleroindole derivatives.
