Two experiments that impacted the fate of fullerenes

Abstract

In this viewpoint, the first separation, isolation and characterization of C60 and C70 molecules carried out by Kroto as well as their separation by using non-covalent interactions involving the host–guest concept with cyclodextrins by Wennerstrom are discussed; whereas the first paper described fullerenes as a huge family of new nanoforms of carbon, the second one paved the way to the supramolecular chemistry of fullerenes.
