The thermal reaction of the endohedral metallofullerene La sub(2)[at]D sub(2)(10611)-C sub(72), which contains two pentalene units at opposite ends of the cage, with 5,6-diphenyl-3-(2-pyridyl)-1,2,4-triazine proceeded selectively to afford only two bisfulleroid isomers. The molecular structure of on...
