摘要
New structures are reported for endohedral metallofullerenes. Through theoretical calculations of Ca@C(72), Ca@C(74), and Sc(2)@C(74), it is found that unconventional cage structures are significantly stabilized by endohedral metal-doping, which violate the isolated pentagon rule or contain heptagonal rings. It is expected that these unconventional structures will extend and enrich the research area of endohedral metallofullerenes. Also reported is a new endohedral metallofullerene La(2)@C(79)N with a heteroatom incorporated in the cage. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
