A Three-Buckyball Platform to Synthesize Structurally Defined Water-Soluble Metallofullerene Derivatives
Invention Summary:
Fullerenes, an allotrope of carbon, are polyhedral closed cages. Fullerenes are able to host additional atoms within their inner spheres. Fullerenes hosting electropositive metals (e.g. Sc, Gd, La), known as endohedral metallofullerenes (EMFs), are especially interesting as the encapsulated metals provide additional...
