Unsymmetrical Structure

A novel actinide cluster, UNU, is stabilized inside a C80 fullerene cage. The U(iv)NU(v) cluster features two UN bonds with uneven bond distances of 2.058(3) Å and 1.943(3) Å, leading to an unsymmetrical structure.

<p>Solubilized fullerene derivatives have revolutionised the development of organic photovoltaic devices, acting as excellent electron acceptors. The addition of solubilizing addends to the fullerene cage results in a large number of isomers, which are generally employed as isomeric mixtures. Moreover, a significant number of these isomers are chiral, which further adds to the isomeric complexity. The opportunities presented by single isomer, and particularly single enantiomer, fullerenes in organic electronic materials and devices are poorly understood. Here we separate 10 pairs of enantiomers from the 19 structural isomers of bis[60]PCBM, using them to elucidate important chiroptical structure-property relationships and demonstrating their application to a single enantiomer circularly polarized (CP) light detecting device. We find that larger chiroptical responses occur through inherent chirality of the fullerene cage and particularly through transitions with low CT character. When used in a single enantiomer organic field-effect transistor device, we demonstrate the potential to discriminate CP light with a fast light response time and with a very high photocurrent dissymmetry factor (<i>g<sub>ph</sub></i> = ±1.35). Our study thus provides key strategies to design fullerenes with large chiroptical responses for use as single enantiomer components of organic electronic devices. We anticipate that our data will position chiral fullerenes as an exciting material class for the growing field of chiral electronic technologies.</p>

The high pressure experiments done on fullerenes are reviewed. C 60 has found to be stable up to about 20 GPa at room temperature and hydrostatic conditions. Application of stronger, or non-hydrostatic, pressures at room temperature can induce the formation of a partially sp3 bonded phase, that apparently conserves the fullerene cage. Extreme non-hydrostatic compressions above about 15 GPa can, though, break down the cage and produce amorphous or cubic diamond. Destruction of the cage at high temperatures has also been observed, but the resulting product is amorphous sp2 material. A preliminary pressure-temperature phase diagram for C 60 is proposed.

Abstract The electronic structure of endohedral Sc@C82 with a C82 cage of C2v symmetry has been studied by ab initio Hartree-Fock (HF) calculations. The optimized position of Sc in the configuration of minimum energy is predicted to be on the two-fold axis of the fullerene cage. In the corresponding configuration Sc is above the center of a hexagon of site symmetry C2 . This structure of C2v symmetry is nearly degenerate with Cs and Ct structures with Sc slightly displaced from the center of the coordinated hexagon. The binding energy of the endohedral complex is larger than 3.55 eV. The ab initio HF data of the C2v topoisomer of the fullerene unit are compared with new experimental findings and HF results derived for the 3(C2) topoisomer of the C82 cage.
