Phenanthroline Ligands Substituted with Fullerene‐Functionalized Dendritic Wedges and Their Copper(I) Complexes.

Abstract Fullerene-functionalized dentritic wedges with a car☐ylic acid function have been attached to a phenanthroline diol derivative. Assembling of the resulting phenanthroline ligands around a copper(I) center gives the corresponding dendritic complexes with 4, 8 or 16 peripherical C 60 groups.
