Is Fullerene a Nonmetal Catalyst in the Hydrogenation of Nitrobenzene?

Fullerenes (C60 and C70) were recently shown to be active in the hydrogenation of nitrobenzene, after activation to form the fullerene anion. However, the catalyst in this reaction is shown to contain residual nickel from the activation of the catalyst, which, as indicated by a series of control exp...

Zusammenfassung:	Fullerenes (C60 and C70) were recently shown to be active in the hydrogenation of nitrobenzene, after activation to form the fullerene anion. However, the catalyst in this reaction is shown to contain residual nickel from the activation of the catalyst, which, as indicated by a series of control experiments, is most likely responsible for the catalytic conversion.
