Regioisomeric core-shell cuprofullerene C60@Cu24

Chem Commun (Camb). 2022 May 3;58(36):5470-5473. doi: 10.1039/d2cc00683a.

Abstract

The controlled synthesis of high-nuclear regioisomeric core-shell exohedral metallofullerenes (ExMFs) is challenging. Herein, we demonstrated the synthesis of regioisomeric core-shell cuprofullerene C60@CuI24 and its 3-D coordination polymer using heteroleptic ligands, realizing high-nuclear regioisomeric ExMFs and a polymeric ExMF structure.
