Spin-active metallofullerene stabilized by the core of an NC moiety

Abstract

A paramagnetic Sc3NC@C80 anion radical was obtained by chemical reduction. ESR spectrometry and theoretical calculations disclosed that the core NC moiety takes possession of the unpaired electron and stabilizes the paramagnetic species. It is the first time a paramagnetic metal cyanide metallofullerene has been obtained.
