Life on earth is based on compounds that have carbon frames and backbones. Today,
chemists have added to the world of biomolecules and biopolymers approximately 107 …

Fullerenes, containing five-and six-membered carbon rings, of which C60 and C70 are the
prominent members, exhibit phase transitions associated with orientational ordering. When …

We have calculated the electronic structure of a fullerene tubule using a first-principles, self-
consistent, all-electron Gaussian-orbital based local-density-functional approach. Extending …

The idea that fullerenes might be able to encapsulate atoms and molecules has been
verified by the successful synthesis of a range of endohedral fullerenes, in which metallic or …

Fullerenes are a new class of compounds with potential uses in biology and medicine and
many insights were made in the knowledge of their interaction with various biological …

Prior tothe studies at Rice University, experiments at Exxon Research on the abundances of
carbon clusters generated by laser vaporizationof graphite resulted in the surprising …

A LONG search for molecular allotropic forms of carbon1–4 culminated in the discovery5–7
of a method for preparing large quantities of the C60 molecule and the subsequent …

Synthesis of 14C-Labeled C60, Its Suspension in Water, and Its Uptake by Human Keratinocytes
Page 1 J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1994, 116, 4517-4518 4517 Synthesis of 14C-Labeled Ceo, Its …

The rotational dynamics of C60 in the solid state have been investigated with carbon-13
nuclear magnetic resonance (13C NMR). The relaxation rate due to chemical shift …

Early reports on the formation of the higher fullerenes C76, C78, C84, C90, and C94 by
resistive heating of graphite stimulated theoretical calculations of possible cage structures …
