Rational synthesis, enrichment, and 13C NMR spectra of endohedral C60 and C70 encapsulating a helium atom

Endohedral fullerenes encapsulating a helium atom, i.e., He60 and He70, at occupation levels of 30% were prepared by rational chemical synthesis. The existence of weak interactions between the inner helium and the outer fullerene cages was demonstrated by experimental and computational investigation...

Summary:Endohedral fullerenes encapsulating a helium atom, i.e., He60 and He70, at occupation levels of 30% were prepared by rational chemical synthesis. The existence of weak interactions between the inner helium and the outer fullerene cages was demonstrated by experimental and computational investigations.
