The authors report ESR studies of three regioisomers of the MeS-C{sub 70}{center_dot} adduct formed by photolysis. A 1:3:3:1 splitting pattern was observed for each regioisomer. A methoxy adduct of C{sub 70} was formed by photolysis of di-tert butyl peroxide in the presence of C{sub 70}, but the ESR spectra were too complicated for interpretation. Photolysis of MeOSSOMe generates an MeO{center_dot} radical which adds to C{sub 60} forming MeO-C{sub 60}{center_dot} which was studied by ESR spectrometry. 11 refs., 3 figs., 1 tab.
