Non-IPR fullerenes have thus far only been isolated as endohedral fullerenes such as Tb 3 N@C 84 with two fused pentagons at the apex of an egg-shaped cage. [4] or as fullerenes with exohedral stabilization such as C 50 Cl 10 [5] and reportedly C 60 H 8. [6] Fullerenes with fewer than 60 carbons do not obey isolated pentagon rule (IPR).
There are two major families of fullerenes, with fairly distinct properties and applications: the closed buckyballs and the open-ended cylindrical carbon nanotubes. [27] However, hybrid structures exist between those two classes, such as carbon nanobuds — nanotubes capped by hemispherical meshes or larger "buckybuds".
Iron(II) sulfate outside a titanium dioxide factory in Kaanaa, Pori, Finland. Upon dissolving in water, ferrous sulfates form the metal aquo complex [Fe(H 2 O) 6] 2+, which is an almost colorless, paramagnetic ion. On heating, iron(II) sulfate first loses its water of crystallization and the original green crystals are converted into a white ...
The iron compounds produced on the largest scale in industry are iron(II) sulfate (FeSO 4 ·7H 2 O) and iron(III) chloride (FeCl 3). The former is one of the most readily available sources of iron(II), but is less stable to aerial oxidation than Mohr's salt ((NH 4) 2 Fe(SO 4) 2 ·6H 2 O). Iron(II) compounds tend to be oxidized to iron(III ...
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.
C 70 fullerene is the fullerene molecule consisting of 70 carbon atoms. 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.
The divalent cation can be magnesium, vanadium, chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc or cadmium. In addition to sulfate and selenate, the divalent anion can be chromate (CrO 4 2− ), tetrafluoroberyllate (BeF 4 2− ), hydrogenphosphate (HPO 4 2− ) [ 2 ] or monofluorophosphate (PO 3 F 2− ).
These endohedral fullerenes are usually synthesized by doping in the metal atoms in an arc reactor or by laser evaporation. These methods gives low yields of endohedral fullerenes, and a better method involves the opening of the cage, packing in the atoms or molecules, and closing the opening using certain organic reactions. This method ...
