Achieving exohedral metallofullerenes (ExMFs) with metal atoms selectively binding at specific spatial positions on the surface of a C 60 molecule remains a considerable challenge. In this study, we report the synthesis of two decanuclear, regioisomeric cuprofullerenes with polar and tropical coordi...
