Presentation transcript:

The 1st Non-IPR Fullerene: Sc2@C66 You see here the charge densities of fullerene molecule obtained by the MEM/Rietveld method using the synchrotron powder data. And these are the fullerene structure determined from the charge density. The charge densities clearly exhibit the configuration of 6 and 5-membered rings. What we have here are the pair of the fused pentagon. In addition, the bonding bridge of Sc2 dimmer can be seen through the carbon cage. This was the first report of the finding and determination of the IPR violating fullerene structure. When you see the charge density, you will find the concentration of electron distribution around fused pentagon. This indicates the existence of strong electron polarization in molecule. From the view point of application of metallofullerene, such a unbalanced localized charge distribution found in this Sc2@C66, La2@C82 and Sc@C82 Is expected to produce novel electronic property. C.R.Wang et al. Nature 408(2000)426-427.
