Fullerenes have the characteristic of a hollow interior, and this unique feature triggers
intuitive inspiration to entrap atoms, ions or clusters inside the carbon cage in the form of …

Carbon-based nanomaterials have rapidly advanced over the last few decades. Fullerenes,
carbon nanotubes, graphene and its derivatives, graphene oxide, nanodiamonds, and …

Metal complexes bearing single-electron metal–metal bonds (SEMBs) exhibit unusual
electronic structures evoking strong magnetic coupling, and such bonds can be stabilized in …

The chemistry of f-block metal–carbon multiple bonds is underdeveloped compared to well-
established carbene complexes of the d-block transition metals. Herein, we report two new …

Actinide diatomic molecules are ideal models to study elusive actinide multiple bonds, but
most of these diatomic molecules have so far only been studied in solid inert gas matrices …

Carbide complexes remain a rare class of molecules. Their paucity does not reflect
exceptional instability but is rather due to the generally narrow scope of synthetic …

Hundreds of members have been synthesized and versatile applications have been
promised for endofullerenes (EFs) in the past 30 y. However, the formation mechanism of …

The Dy-Sc nitride clusterfullerene Dy2ScN@ C80-Ih exhibits slow relaxation of
magnetization up to 76 K. Above 60 K, thermally-activated relaxation proceeds via the fifth …

This article outlines the magnetic properties of single molecule magnets based on Dy-
encapsulating endohedral metallofullerenes. The factors that govern these properties, such …

Abstract Supramolecular nanocapsule 1⋅(BArF) 8 is able to sequentially and selectively
entrap recently discovered U2@ C80 and unprecedented Sc2CU@ C80, simply by soaking …
