Bis ‐functionalized fullerenes have resulted in very effective acceptors in organic photovoltaic solar cells . Here we present a short overview of specific and recently reported pure bis ‐adduct regioisomers of C 60 using short tethers, a few recent examples of bis ‐adducts of C 70 and finally examples of bis ‐adducts of endohedral cluster fullerenes. We also discuss the unexpected reactivity differences of empty fullerenes (C 60 and C 70 ) compared with those of trimetallic nitride cluster endohedral fullerenes (M 3 N@ I h ‐C 80 , M = Sc, Lu) towards tethered‐ bis ‐addition reactions. Finally, we describe the remarkable endohedral‐cluster regiochemical control of multiple additions. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
