Hetero-association of C60 fullerene with aromatic ligands: antitumour antibiotic doxorubicin and dyes proflavine and methylene blue, - was studied by UF/visible spectroscopy. The up-scaled hetero-association model was developed, in which formation of C60 clusters with different aggregate size was taken into account. The extinction coefficients of mixed solution and hetero-association constants were determined by analysis of experimental concentration dependences of differential absorption.
