One of the attractive properties of the hollow carbon clusters, known as fullerenes, is the
possibility to use them as robust containers for other species. Although an IUPAC …

Fullerenes have the characteristic of a hollow interior, and this unique feature triggers
intuitive inspiration to entrap atoms, ions or clusters inside the carbon cage in the form of …

Organic electrochemistry is concerned with the reduction and oxidation of organic molecules
at electrodes. Although it is now more than 200 years ago that the so-called Volta pile was …

In this tutorial review taking X-ray crystallographically characterized compounds as a starting
point a walk is taken through the electronic and structural properties of endohedral …

The row of endohedral fullerenes is extended by a new type of sulfur-containing
clusterfullerenes: the metal sulfide (M2S) has been stabilized within a fullerene cage for the …

Fullerenes and endohedral metallofullerenes (EMFs) are exceptional compounds of
outstanding interest in many fields for their physicochemical properties, including material …

Metal–cage and intracluster bonding was studied in detail by quantum theory of atoms in
molecules (QTAIM) for the four major classes of endohedral metallofullerenes (EMFs) …

Metal carbido complexes bearing single-carbon-atom ligand such as nitrogenase provide
ideal models of adsorbed carbon atoms in heterogeneous catalysis. Trimetallic μ3-carbido …

Clusterfullerenes are capable of entrapping a variety of metal clusters within carbon cage,
for which the entrapped metal cluster generally keeps its geometric structure (eg, bond …

A non isolated pentagon rule metallic sulfide clusterfullerene, Sc2S@ C s (10528)-C72, has
been isolated from a raw mixture of Sc2S@ C2 n (n= 35–50) obtained by arc-discharging …
