| Abstract | A series of thioacetyl-functionalized fullerene-C60 derivatives were synthesized using the Prato reaction of fullerene-C60 with six different 4-(S-acetylthioalkyl)benzaldehydes. The structures of the synthesized compounds were characterized by FT-IR, 1H NMR and ESI-MS techniques. The LUMO–HOMO band gaps, derived from DFT B3LYP/6-31G* calculations, for the azomethine ylides corresponding to each 4-(S-acetylthioalkyl)benzaldehyde and fullerene-C60 were correlated with the efficiency of the Prato reaction. The compounds were deposited onto gold electrodes via self-assembly following an in situ deprotection procedure which transformed the thioacetyl-functionalized compounds into their thiolated derivatives. The redox properties of the C60 derivatives in solution were characterized using Voltammetry. The LUMO–HOMO band gaps obtained from the electrochemical data were compared with the density functional theory (DFT) values for the optimized structures. The thioacetyl-functionalized C60 derivatives were employed for the catalytic reduction of halogenated hydrocarbons. Following deprotection, they were also employed for the modification of gold substrates. The solvent dependent barrier properties of the thiolated fullerene films were investigated using Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) and Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). The topography of the C60 derivative modified electrode was investigated using X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), which confirmed stable modification of the Au support with a three dimensional (3D) film of worm-like fullerene aggregates. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
