Abstract

Using a purification method introduced earlier based on redox properties it was possible to isolate Sc₃N@I_h-C₈₀ and Sc₃N@D_3h-C₇₈ and a mixture of Sc₃N@D_5h-C₈₀ and Sc₃N@D₃-C₆₈. Taking advantage of their chemical reactivity differences, Sc₃N@D_5h-C₈₀ was isolated from Sc₃N@D₃-C₆₈ followed by further functionalization, giving rise to five new methano-derivatives of Sc₃N@D_5h-C₈₀.
