Abstract

C₆₀ was profoundly revealed as being an excellent container for stabilizing unusual Ga(I). Differently sized fullerenes performed as flexible tools for tuning the oxidation states of gallium. A fluoridation strategy was proposed for the further stabilization of Ga@I_h(1812)-C₆₀. This will facilitate exploiting more features and applications involving rarely used Ga(I ).
