The theoretical circular dichroism (CD) spectra of optically active C60 and C70 bis-adducts with chiral functionalization patterns and of the enantiomers of inherently chiral D2-C76 and its mono-adducts were calculated by the π-electron SCF-CI-DV MO method. By comparison with the experimental CD spectra, the absolute configurations of these compounds were assigned.
