RESUMEN
Two nitroxide methanofullerenes was synthesized for the first time, and their structures and biological activities studied. It was shown by X-ray single crystal analysis that the methanofullerene with two nitroxide groups forms a 1 : 2 inclusion complex with chloroform and has a nearly tetrahedral (diamond-like) arrangement of fullerene-fullerene interactions in the crystal. For the first time, it has been found that malonate nitroxide methanofullerene in combination with the known anticancer drug cyclophosphamide (CPA) shows high antitumor activity against leukemia P-388.

After pulsed photoexcitation of a new fullerene-linked bisnitroxide, a well resolved transient EPR spectrum is detected which is assigned to an excited quintet spin state generated by spin coupling of the nitroxides and the fullerene excited triplet.
