Fullerene oxides were synthesized by fullerene ($C_{70}$) and several amine N-oxides such as 3-picoline N-oxide, pyridine N-oxide hydrate, quinoline N-oxide, and isoquinoline N-oxide under ultrasonic condition at $25{\sim}43^{\circ}C$. The reactivity of fullerene ($C_{70}$) with various amine N-oxides undo, ultrasonic irradiation showed the same in all of the proceeding experiments; 3-picoline N-oxide : pyridine N-oxide hydrate : quinoline N-oxide : isoquinoline N-oxide. The MALDI-TOF MS, UV-vis spectrophotometer and HPLC analysis confirmed that the products of fullerene oxidation are [$C_{70}(O)n$] (n=1).

Synthesis of fullerene oxides [$C_{70}O_n$] ($n=1{\sim}3$ or n=1) in solid state by fullerene [$C_{70}$] and several oxidants such as 3-chloroperoxy benzoic acid, chromium(VI) oxide, benzoyl peroxide, and trichloroisocyanuric acid was taken place under microwave irradiation. The reactivity in solid state oi fullerene [$C_{70}$] with various oxidants under same microwave condition increased in the order of 3-chloroperoxy benzoic acid > chromium(VI) oxide > trichloroisocyanuric acid ${\simeq}benzoyl$ peroxide. The MALDI-TOF-MS, UV-visible spectra and HPLC analysis confirmed that the products of fullerene oxidation were [$C_{70}O_n$] ($n=1{\sim}3$ or n=1).

Sonochemical synthesis of fullerene oxides $[C_{70}O_n](n=1{\sim}2)$ by fullerene$[C_{70}]$ and metal hexacarbonyl complexes $M(CO)_6$(M=Cr, Mo, W) took place under air atmosphere. The reactivity of fullerene$[C_{70}]$ and several metal hexacarbonyl complexes $M(CO)_6$(M=Cr, Mo, W) under same ultrasonic condition increased in the order of $Mo(CO)_6$ > $W(CO)_6$ > $Cr(CO)_6$. The MALDI-TOF-MS, UV-visible spectra, and HPLC analysis confirmed that the products of sonochemical reaction were $[C_{70}O_n](n=1{\sim}2)$.

Synthesis of fullerene oxides by fullerenes [$C_{60},\;C_{70}$] and several oxidants such as benzoylperoxide, trichloroisocyanuric acid, methyltrioxorhenium(VII), iodosobenzene, phosphorous pentoxide take place under ultrasonic condition at room temperature. The MALDI-TOF MS,UV-visible spectra and HPLC analysis confirmed that the products of fullerenes oxidation are [$C_{60}(O)_n$], ($n=1{\sim}3$ or n=1) and [$C_{70}(O)_n$], ($n=1{\sim}2$ or n=1). As compared with the reactivity of epoxidation of fullerenes [$C_{60},\;C_{70}$], the reaction rate of $C_{70}$ was lower than that of $C_{60}$ under same reaction condition.

Sonochemical reaction of fullerene oxides, $[C_{70}(O)_n](n\geq1)$ with several aromatic amines such as 4-nitroaniline, 3-nitroaniline, and 4-isopropylaniline, in the presence of $FeCl_3$ were investigated under ultrasonic irradiation. This method is applicable to a wide variety of aromatic amines especially ring deactivated, to afford the corresponding cleavage products under mild conditions. The aminated fullerenes were confirmed by MALDI-TOF-MS and UV-vis spectra.

Synthesis or fullerene oxides[$C_{60}(O)_n$] ($n=1{\sim}4$ or n=1) by fullerene[$C_{60}$] and several oxidants such as 3-chloroperoxy benzoic acid, benzoyl peroxide, trichloroisocyanuric acid, and chromium(VI) oxide took place under microwave irradiation. The reactivity in solid state of fullerene[$C_{60}$] with various oxidants under same microwave rendition increased in order or 3- chloroperoxy benzoic acid > benzoyl peroxide > trichloroisocyanuric acid $\simeq$chromium(VI) oxide. The MALDI-TOF-MS, UV-visible spectra and HPLC analysis confirmed that the products of fullerene oxidation were [$C_{60}(O)_n$] ($n=1{\sim}4$ or n=1).

Infrared absorption spectra of 9 bulk samples and 3 acid residues of meteorites were obtained in the mid-infrared region ($4000~400cm^{-1}$). From the know composition of meteorites studied, the possible absorption modes were investigated. Most bands of bulk samples occur in the region below $1200cm^{-1}$ and they are due to metallic oxides and silicates. The spectra of each group can be distinguished by its own characteristic bands. Acid residues show very distinct features from their bulk samples, and absorp-tion bands due to organic compounds are not evident in their spectra. Quantiative analyses for two carbonaceous (Allende CV3 and Murchison CM2) and one ordinary (Carraweena L3.9) chondrites were performed for the presence of fullerene ($C_{60}$) in the meteorites. We calculated the concentration of $C_{60}$ in the acid residues by curve-fitting the spectra with Gaussian functions. The upper limit of $C_{60}$ concentration in these meteorites appears to be less than an order of a few hundred ppm.
