Redox-Tuning Endohedral Fullerene Spin States: From the Dication to the Trianion Radical of Sc3N@C80(CF3)2 in Five Reversible Single-Electron Steps

Redox-Tuning Endohedral Fullerene Spin States: From the Dication to the Trianion Radical of Sc3N@C80(CF3)2 in Five Reversible Single-Electron Steps

The first endohedral trianion captured: Sc3N@C80(CF3)2 (see figure) exhibits three reversible reductions and two reversible oxidations and affords the facile generation of the monocation, monoanion, and trianion in solution, which can be characterized by ESR and absorption spectroscopies. This is th...

Zusammenfassung:The first endohedral trianion captured: Sc3N@C80(CF3)2 (see figure) exhibits three reversible reductions and two reversible oxidations and affords the facile generation of the monocation, monoanion, and trianion in solution, which can be characterized by ESR and absorption spectroscopies. This is the first time that such a broad range of charged states of any endohedral fullerene has been spectroscopically characterized.
