  2. C70 fullerene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C70_fullerene

    It is a cage-like fused-ring structure which resembles a rugby ball, made of 25 hexagons and 12 pentagons, with a carbon atom at the vertices of each polygon and a bond along each polygon edge. A related fullerene molecule, named buckminsterfullerene (or C 60 fullerene) consists of 60 carbon atoms.

  3. Allotropes of carbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allotropes_of_carbon

    They are named for the resemblance to the geodesic structures devised by Richard Buckminster "Bucky" Fuller. Fullerenes are positively curved molecules of varying sizes composed entirely of carbon, which take the form of a hollow sphere, ellipsoid, or tube (the C60 version has the same form as a traditional stitched soccer ball).

    60 solutions. Fullerenes are soluble in many organic solvents, such as toluene, chlorobenzene, and 1,2,3-trichloropropane. Solubilities are generally rather low, such as 8 g/L for C 60 in carbon disulfide. Still, fullerenes are the only known allotrope of carbon that can be dissolved in common solvents at room temperature.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fullerene_chemistry

    Fullerene or C 60 is soccer-ball-shaped or I h with 12 pentagons and 20 hexagons. According to Euler's theorem these 12 pentagons are required for closure of the carbon network consisting of n hexagons and C 60 is the first stable fullerene because it is the smallest possible to obey this rule.

  6. Solubility of fullerenes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solubility_of_fullerenes

    C 60 in solution C 60 in extra virgin olive oil showing the characteristic purple color of pristine C 60 solutions. The solubility of fullerenes is generally low. Carbon disulfide dissolves 8g/L of C60, and the best solvent (1-chloronaphthalene) dissolves 53 g/L. up Still, fullerenes are the only known allotrope of carbon that can be dissolved in common solvents at room temperature.

  7. Buckminsterfullerene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckminsterfullerene

    Buckminsterfullerene is a black solid that dissolves in hydrocarbon solvents to produce a violet solution. The substance was discovered in 1985 and has received intense study, although few real world applications have been found. Molecules of buckminsterfullerene (or of fullerenes in general) are commonly nicknamed buckyballs. [3] [4]

  9. Endohedral fullerene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endohedral_fullerene

    Endohedral fullerenes, also called endofullerenes, are fullerenes that have additional atoms, ions, or clusters enclosed within their inner spheres. The first lanthanum C 60 complex called La@C 60 was synthesized in 1985. [2] The @ in the name reflects the notion of a small molecule trapped inside a shell.
