A novel and efficient Cu(I)-catalyzed radical heteroannulation reaction of [60]fullerene (C60) with α-bromo acetamides has been disclosed for the direct synthesis of diverse C60-fused lactams. Furthermore, the formed C60-fused lactams can be served as a versatile platform for further electrochemical functionalization to prepare 1,2-, 1,4-, 1,2,3,16-, and 1,4,9,25-adducts of C60. In addition, a representative fullerene product has been applied as an overcoating layer of the electron-transporting layer in n-type perovskite solar cell.
