Since the initial discovery and subsequent development of the large-scale synthesis of fullerenes, the chemical action of these molecules has been of fundamental interest. Initially detected in the gas phase, there are ongoing attempts to prepare, isolate and characterize fullerenes with metals contained in the interior. Buckmisterfullerene(C_(60)) has been doped with combinations of alkali and other metals to produce high-temperature superconductors. Interaction of C_(60) with metal surface in various Since the initial discovery and subsequent development of the large-scale synthesis of fullerenes, the chemical action of these molecules has been of fundamental interest.
