Abstract
- The first structural analysis of the C72 fullerene encapsulating two La atoms, La2@C72, by high-resolution (super 13)C NMR is reported. Unstable species such as metal clusters, carbides, and nitrides can safely be entrapped in several fullerene cages. This shows that the enhoderal hallow space of fullerenes can provide a unique nanometer-scale field for stabilizing unstable species.
