We present an extension of the structural motif model [Cioslowski et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 2000, 122, 8265], originally proposed to predict the relative stability of medium-sized neutral fullerenes (C60-C102), to account for the correct graphene limit, thus widening its range of applicability to giant and supergiant icosahedral fullerenes. The new model has been parameterized using the densit...

A carbon heptagon ring is a key unit responsible for structural defects in sp(2)-hybrized carbon allotropes including fullerenes, carbon nanotubes and graphenes, with consequential influences on their mechanical, electronic and magnetic properties. Previous evidence concerning the existence of heptagons in fullerenes has been obtained only in off-line halogenation experiments through top-down d...

A series of buckybowls with different sizes and structures have been tested as potential receptors of fullerenes C60, C70 and C40. Among these bowls are corannulene (C20H10), sumanene (C21H12), pinakene (C28H14), hemifullerene (C30H12), circumtrindene (C36H12), pentaindenocorannulene (C50H20) and bowl-shaped hexabenzocoronene derivatives. An exhaustive study, taking into account different orien...

Both the eigenfunctions and the local density of states (DOS) near the pentagonal defects on the fullerenes was calculated analytically as a numerically. The results shows that the low-energy DOS has a cusp which drops to zero at the Fermi energy for any number of pentagons at the tip except three. For three pentagons, the nonzero DOS across the Fermi level is formed. Graphite is an example of ...

The introduction of pin-up oxygen on C60, such as in the oxidized fullerenes C60O and C60On, induced noticeable increase in the antioxidant activity as compared to pristine C60. The water-soluble inclusion complexes of fullerenes C60O and C60On reacted with linoleic acid peroxyl radical 1.7 and 2.4 times faster, respectively.

Since the discovery of fullerenes (Cn), one of the main classes of carbon compounds, the unusual structures and properties of these molecules and by the many potential applications and physicochemical properties have been discovered and were introduced. Up to now, various empty carbon fullerenes with a different magic number “n,” such as C20, C60, C70, C80, C180, C240 and so on, have been obtai...

Unmodified [60]fullerenes (C60) were solubilised with high stability using various type of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) based block copolymer micelles. Block copolymer micelle-incorporated C60 fullerenes were studied in cultures for biological activities using human cervical cancer HeLa cells. As a result, the cationic block copolymer micelles delivered C60 into the cells depending on their surf...

We have demonstrated that NBS is able to promote the oxidation of fullerene monoradicals to form 1,4-difunctional fullerenes. The singly bonded fullerene dimers were used as fullerene monoradical precursors, which produced various 1,4-fullerenes with a wide range of functional groups in good to high yields with high regioselectivity in terms of cosolvents and nucleophiles.

Targeted Molecular Design of Functionalized Fullerenes fullerenes play crucial roles in promoting power conversion efficiency and stability perovskite photovoltaics. In article number 2200012, Zhou Xing, Shu-Hui Li, Shihe Yang review recent progress the application functionalized for solar cells, placing special emphasis on importance targeted molecular design fullerene structures different sce...
