Abstract

Single crystal X-ray analysis shows the main (C2) isomer of C70F38 to contain three planar delocalised aromatic hexagons (two equivalent and one centred on the C2 axis), together with seven C[double bond, length as m-dash]C bonds (three pairs and one straddling the C2 axis); C70F38 is the first high addition level [70]fullerene derivative to be fully characterised, is the first to have equatorial addends, and is calculated to have high stability.
