Abstract

Not Sc<sub>2</sub> @C<sub>86</sub> but Sc<sub>2</sub> C<sub>2</sub> @C<sub>84</sub> : that is the conclusion of <sup>13</sup> C NMR spectroscopic and synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction studies on a new metallofullerene obtained by arc discharge of Sc<sub>2</sub> O<sub>3</sub> /graphite rods. The picture shows a schematic representation of the deduced structure, in which the novel scandium carbide cluster Sc<sub>2</sub> C<sub>2</sub> is encaged in D<sub>2d</sub> -C<sub>84</sub> .
