ABSTRACT
22
Hydrogenated fullerenes (termed fulleranes) have been demonstrated as key material
23
components in advanced hydrogen storage and lithium battery technologies, among other
24
applications; however, their potential environmental reactivity has not been evaluated to date.
25
Here, for the first time, photo-induced oxidation and corresponding dissolution of solid
26
fulleranes (C60Hx, x = 39.9-45.5) into water is demonstrated to rapidly occur under attenuated-
27
sunlight, UVA irradiation and even under dark conditions, albeit more slowly as long as oxygen
28
is present. Through a series of batch experiments, reaction kinetics demonstrate that both light
29
and oxygen play key roles in the solvation process as reaction rates were a function of both
30
irradiation intensity and wavelengths along with dissolved oxygen concentration. Resulting
31
products, which were characterized by FTIR, XPS, UV-Vis, TOC and DLS, showed significant
32
loss of hydrogenation and extensive oxygen-based functional group addition(s). Hydroxyl radical
33
was identified as one of the major reactive oxygen species involved in the reaction. The
34
increased hydrophilicity of product materials was quantified through classic octanol-water
35
partition experiments (Kow).

INTRODUCTION
37
Since discovery and subsequent mass production, carbon fullerenes have been derivatized and
38
modified for a variety of diverse applications.1-7 Among such, fullerene reduction via
39
hydrogenation is recognized as a promising process for reversible hydrogen storage (through
40
stable hydrogenation / dehydrogenation cycling).6, 8, 9 Hydrogenated fullerenes, also termed as
41
“fulleranes”7, have been also applied to lithium ion batteries for enhanced efficiency and
42
extended lifetimes.10 The first fullerene hydrogenation protocol was developed by Haufler et al.
43
through a Birch-Hückel reduction, resulting in C60H18 - C60H36 as major products.11 Higher levels
44
of C60 hydrogenation, with up to 50 hydrogen atoms per molecule, has been achieved via 5 %
45
Ru/carbon catalyst under high hydrogen pressures (12 MPa).12 Relatively fast fullerene reduction
46
with Zn and concentrated HCl (12 M) in toluene/benzene solution has also been demonstrated,
47
resulting in a C60H36 product.13 Lower levels of fullerene hydrogenation (oligohydrofullerene,
48
C60Hx, x = 2-12) have been demonstrated via reduction by a number of metals (e.g. Cu/Zn) and
49
even by organic reducing agents.14, 15
50
With commercial production and application, the potential for these and other fullerene
51
materials to enter natural systems increases. Upon environmental exposure, associated reaction
52
pathways with (ubiquitous) reactants such as oxygen are critical to elucidate, as the identification
53
of stable daughter products, if any, is key for accurate lifecycle and risk assessments. This fact is
54
highlighted by recent observations of facile fullerene transformation to oxidized, water soluble
55
products (termed fullerols) when exposed to water, oxygen and light.16, 17 Compared with parent
56
fullerenes, previous studies have shown the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) through
57
fullerols photocatalyzed reactions was more efficient, and suggested ROS as a potential
58
causative agent for cells inactivation.16, 18-21 Further, published evaluations of potential fullerane

59
environmental implications are few. Lovern et al. evaluated the toxicity of fullerane using
60
Daphnia magna as a biological receptor and reported physiological changes upon exposure,
61
including reproductive decline.22 A major limitation of such studies is extremely low aqueous
62
fullerane solubilities. 23-25 To date, there is no literature report regarding measured or estimated
63
aqueous solubility of hydrogenated fullerenes.
64
Based on the increasing electronegativity of fullerene carbon atoms when bound to hydrogen,
65
fulleranes should be more susceptible to electrophilic addition (i.e. oxidation), compared to
66
parent fullerenes. Such reactions have been demonstrated and include: oxidation of fulleranes
67
(dissolved in n-hexane) under UV irradiation (254 nm)26 and oxidation of C60H36 (dissolved in
68
toluene open to the atmosphere) while exposed (48 hrs) to ambient light.13 To date, however,
69
potential reactions of fulleranes directly in water have not been identified or evaluated. Herein,
70
this work describes the oxidation and molecular solvation of solid fullerane in contact with
71
water, which is significantly enhanced in the presence of light. Reaction kinetics of product
72
dissolution, due to carbon cage oxidation, were examined through UV-Vis spectroscopy and total
73
organic carbon (TOC) analyses over a range of conditions including varied photo-irradiation and
74
dissolved oxygen levels. Water soluble, oxidized products were identified and characterized
75
through Fourier transformation infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron
76
spectroscopy (XPS). Product behavior and aqueous (physical) status were further characterized
77
with traditional octanol-water partition experiments and dynamic light scattering (DLS) analyses.
78
MATERIALS AND METHODS
79
Solid fulleranes (C60Hx, x ~ 45.5 and x ~ 39.9 as averaged) were purchased from MER
80
Corporation (Tucson, AZ) where they were prepared through direct hydrogenation in a high
81
isostatic pressure reactor with a hydrogen atmosphere at elevated temperature. As received,

Environmental Science & Technology Letters
82
parent fullerane materials were stored in a vacuum desiccator to avoid transformation by
83
humidity and/or oxidation. Starting materials as received (C60Hx, x ~ 45.5 as average) were
84
characterized through FTIR and XPS, shown in Figure 2a and 3a, indicating high purity, which
85
has also been reported elsewhere.27, 28 Solvation experiments were conducted as batch reactions
86
with 40 mg/L solid fullerane (C60Hx, x ~ 45.5 as average) mixed via magnetic stirring (500 rpm)
87
in 50 mL ultrapure water (18.2 Ω) in customized quartz reactors (Technical Glass Products, OH)
88
under varied photo-irradiation scenarios. Experiments done with attenuated-sunlight (A-sunlight,
89
filtered by borosilicate glass windows) were carried out next to a lab window (St. Louis, MO,
90
90°18'W, 38o38'N, 07/21/2012-08/06/2012). Light intensities were monitored daily with a
91
radiometer (UVP, Inc. CA) and summarized in Figure S1. Reactions performed under
92
monochromatic UVA irradiation were carried out in a customized photo-reactor, with fans on
93
each side for heat dissipation, between two circuitous, monochromatic UVA lamps (BHK Inc.
94
CA) at a wavelength of 351 nm. The light intensity was calibrated as 2000 ± 50 µW/cm2 by the
95
radiometer before the reaction and corrected regularly during the reaction as needed. To
96
delineate the role, if any, of hydroxyl radicals during the reaction(s), 10 mM t-BuOH was used as
97
a hydroxyl radical scavenger.29 Dark control experiments, wrapped in aluminum foil, were
98
conducted in parallel. For anaerobic conditions, solutions (50 mL) were bubbled with N2 gas
99
(Airgas, Bowling Green, KY) for at least 1 hour to lower the dissolved oxygen concentration
100
below 1 ppm, as tested with a microprobe DO meter (Neofox system, Oceanoptics, FL).
101
Anaerobic conditions were maintained via Teflon crimp sealed caps (Wheaton Industries Inc.,
102
NJ) and sparged with N2 gas for 10 minutes after every sampling event, leaving the sealed
103
reactor under slightly positive pressure. All experiments were performed in triplicate at room
104
temperature (21.0 ± 1.0 oC). Additional reaction and characterization details, including UV-Vis,

supporting information (SI).
107
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
108
As solid fullerane reacted in water, the observed (aqueous) product UV-Vis spectra exhibited a
109
single significant absorbance peak centered at ca. 210 nm (7 day reaction, UVA aerobic
110
conditions, Figure S2), which is consistent with the report describing the photo-oxidization (and
111
consequent solubilization) of fullerenes to fullerols in water.17 Under direct monochromatic
112
UVA (351 nm wavelength) irradiation and in the presence of dissolved oxygen (under open,
113
atmospheric headspace conditions), UV-Vis absorbance (primarily in the UV region of the
114
product spectrum) of dissolved products increases significantly as the reaction proceeds (Figure
115
1b and Figure S2), consistent with the increasing (transparent) yellow hue of the solution (Figure
116
1a). Additionally, the absorption peak centers of the products under UVA irradiation shifted to
117
longer wavelengths (from 203 nm to 212 nm) as the reaction continued from 1 day to 12 days,
118
which is shown in Figure S3. Cataldo et al. also observed such shifts during the photolysis of
119
fullerane in n-hexane (peak max shifted from 217 nm to 220 nm after 360 seconds of photo-
120
irradiation at 254 nm). The phenomenon is hypothesized to be an artifact of sp3 hybridized
121
carbons (hydrogenated carbon), which are predominant in the parent fulleranes, transforming
122
back to sp2 hybridized carbon upon dehydrogenation.30 For comparison, under UVA aerobic
123
conditions, fullerane starting material with a slightly lower number of hydrogen numbers per
124
molecule (C60Hx, x ~ 45.5 vs. x ~ 39.9) was also evaluated (Figure 1b). While exhibiting a
125
similar initial reaction rate, a lower final peak absorbance value was observed, which may result
126
from an overall lower oxidation (product) status and/or due to different (lower) product
127
extinction coefficient(s). Compared with UVA irradiation, the increase of product absorbance

6
Page 7 of 20

128
under attenuated-sunlight irradiation was significantly slower as the absorbance of the sunlight
129
products after 3 days reaction is about 19 % compared to UVA irradiation conditions over the
130
same time. Fullerane solvation was also observed under dark experiments in the presence of
131
dissolved oxygen, as indicated by a low level appearance of product peaks over the described
132
reaction time, which were the slowest rates observed. In contrast, under anaerobic conditions
133
(dissolved oxygen below 1 ppm), for both light and dark conditions, no apparent product peaks
134
occured over the same reaction times. The maximum UV absorption values at specific
135
wavelength (peak center) under different experimental conditions are compared in Figure 1b.
136
Further, in the presence of 10 mM t-BuOH, which is as a hydroxyl radical scavenger29, a
137
significantly slower reaction rate was observed (Figure 1b) under UVA / aerobic conditions,
138
suggesting hydroxyl radical involvement in the reaction. It is hypothesized that hydroxyl radicals
139
could be formed as secondary ROS after initial reactive oxygen species (e.g. singlet oxygen and
140
superoxide) are produced (via fullerene intermediates) as observed by others31-33. Singlet oxygen
141
and superoxide, as the initial ROS, could also play roles in the oxidation of hydrogenated
142
fullerene through electrophilic substitution/addition. However, the exact oxidation mechanism(s)
143
remains unclear and is currently being investigated further. TOC analysis of 1-day and 12-day
144
samples in Figure 1c was consistent with the UV-Vis analysis, correlating dissolved carbon with
145
solvation observations. Total organic carbon of soluble products under open, UVA irradiation
146
reached 36 mg/L after 12 days of reaction which is 95.7 % of the initial solid fullerane carbon
147
added to the reactor. Under the same conditions, pH correspondingly decreased as the reaction
148
proceeded to a final value of near pH 4 due to hydrogen elimination and oxygen-based functional
149
group additions.

Parent fullerane and solvated water-soluble products were characterized by FTIR and
151
compared in Figure 2. Parent fullerane exhibited strong absorption at ca. 2860 and 2780 cm-1,
152
which are assigned to C-H stretching bonds, as reported by Cataldo et al. for C60H36.27 For all
153
aerobic reaction conditions, a concurrent loss of C-H bonds and appearance of oxygen
154
functionalities were observed at ca. 3400 cm-1 (OH stretching), 1700 cm-1 coupled with shifts at
155
1600 cm-1 (C=O), 1400 cm-1 (C-OH in plane bending) and 1050 cm-1 (C-O stretching).17, 29, 34, 35
156
Absorbance peaks typical of carbonyl groups (1700 cm-1 and 1600 cm-1) and C-OH (1400 cm-1)
157
increased significantly as the light intensity increased (monochromatic UVA reactions). An IR
158
spectrum of one type of commercial fullerol (C60(OH)x(ONa)y, y ~ 6-8, x+y ~ 24, MER Corp.,
159
AZ) is also provided (as the bottom line) in Figure 2 for comparison with a well characterized,
160
water soluble oxidized fullerene (fullerol), as reported elsewhere.17, 29, 34, 36 TEM observations,
161
show amorphous, aggregated products cluster, similar to soft aggregated fullerols, as shown by
162
others.37
163
Product XPS spectra under different reaction conditions are compared in Figure 3. The
164
dominant carbon peak (98.8 % peak area) for parent fullerane at a binding energy of 284.5 eV
165
(Figure 3a) is assigned to C-C/C-H carbon38-40, which was also observed in parent C60 at a lower
166
ratio (Figure S5). Low levels (1.2 %) of (initially) oxidized carbon also appeared in the parent
167
fullerane materials, which has also been observed by others.41 The XPS spectrum of the products
168
collected from the aerobic reaction in the dark (Figure 3b), showed decreased C-C/C-H signal at
169
284.5 eV (69.2 % peak area) coupled with increased mono-oxidized carbon signal (286.4 eV,
170
29.7 %).39, 40 It should be noted that 12-day soluble products, measured as TOC, for aerobic dark
171
conditions were only ca. 25 % (10 mg/L TOC, solubilized) of the original 40 mg/L carbon added
172
as solid fullerane reactant (Figure 1c). Carbonyl (288.0 eV, 6.2 %) and carboxyl groups (289.9
Page 8 of 20

Page 9 of 20

173
eV, 1.3 %) were observed in oxidized products with attenuated-sunlight irradiation (Figure 3c).17,
174
29, 40
175
68.5 %, indicating one third of the carbon atoms had been oxidized. Additionally, compared to
176
all other conditions, higher levels of carbonyl (C=O, 11.3 %) and carboxyl (-O=C-O, 5.1 %)
177
were observed for these products. XPS analysis of previously described commercial fullerol
178
showed a very similar oxidized carbon distribution when compared to the UVA/aerobic
179
(oxidized) fullerane products (Figure 3e).
Upon UVA irradiation (Figure 3d), the C-C/C-H ratio of the oxidized products decreased to
180
Upon reaction, the hydrodynamic size of water stable product clusters was evaluated by DLS
181
(Figure S6a). The cluster size (number averaged) decreased over the reaction time for all aerobic
182
conditions. Smaller size distributions suggest looser aggregation/disaggregation of clustered
183
products as the solvation proceeds, due to a molecular enhancement in water solubility (i.e.
184
increasing oxygen functionality as noted by others).42, 43 After 5 days of reaction, the average
185
cluster size of the products under UVA/aerobic irradiation was reduced to 39 nm compared to
186
dark aerobic conditions, which was measured to be 95 nm. Stable clusters formed under
187
attenuated-sunlight irradiation, exhibited broader size distributions, compared with that under
188
UVA/aerobic and dark/aerobic conditions. Such polydispersity may be due to the diversity (and
189
varied reaction kinetics) of the soluble products generated when exposed to a broader spectrum
190
of wavelengths associated with sunlight irradiation. In a study by Hou et al. on the aqueous C60
191
cluster photo-transformation, it was demonstrated that the quantum yields and ROS production
192
depend on the wavelength of the irradiating lights38, which could further effect the oxygen
193
moiety distribution in the products thus also effecting the relative driving force for the cluster
194
formation in the aqueous phase.37 Product partitioning behavior was evaluated via octanol-water
195
partition (expressed as Kow) experiments Figure S6b. As expected, significantly decreased Kow
ACS Paragon Plus Environment

196
was observed for reacted products, which is consistent with the presence of oxygen-based
197
functional groups and thus enhanced aqueous solubility. Partition coefficients for products
198
formed under UVA/aerobic conditions approach a Kow of zero.
Page 10 of 20
199
In summary, this study, for the first time, demonstrates insoluble solid hydrogenated fullerene
200
readily undergoes extensive oxidation and corresponding solvation (solubility) into water in the
201
presence of oxygen. For all reactions, enhancement was observed in the presence of light.
202
Product characterization indicates significant loss of hydrogen groups along with extensive
203
addition(s) of oxygen-based functionalities. Further, oxidation extent was correlated with photo-
204
irradiation conditions – higher light intensity resulted in near complete reactant solvation (after
205
12 days) with higher product oxidation levels and the lowest Kow values. In addition to the role
206
of hydroxyl radical, experiments towards specific (molecular) mechanistic understanding of
207
these reactions are currently ongoing and will be detailed in future reports. Based on these key
208
initial observations, significant fullerane reactivity and transformation under aqueous conditions,
209
which include oxygen and light, should be expected to occur. For these and other advanced
210
materials, understanding such reactivity is critical for material fate, transport and exposure
211
models used for accurate lifecycle and risk analyses.
