Functionalized [C60] fullerene, fulleropyrrolidines were synthesized and their photophysical properties are studied. The absorption and emission patterns are altered in fulleropyrrolidines, when compared with C60. Fluorescence of the molecules is quenched by CHCl3 in toluene solution at room temperature. Effect of nature and length of side chains in fulleropyrrolidine on quenching is investigated. Results suggested that the fluorescence intensity increased with increase in carbon chain length and the Stern-Volmer plot intercept values are indirectly proportional to the number of the carbons.
