Photofragmentation study of metal fullerides C60Mx (M=Sm, Pt, Ni and Rh) by excimer laser ablation-TOF mass spectrometry shows that metallofullerenes C2nM and C2n+1M formed in both the positive and negative ionic medes.The isotopic distributions of the metallofullerenes C2nM and C2n+1M are consistent with the calculated spectra based on the natural abundance of isotopes of C and M, confirming the formation of metallofullerenes. The metal atom is supposed to be incorporated into the network of the fullerene cage to replace one carbon atom of the cage forming substitutional metallofullerene. Odd-numbered high carbon cluisters are observed in our laser ablation study of all the metal fullerides in the negative ion channel. Evolution of mass spectrum with irradiation laser shots shows that the formation of the substitutionally doped fullerenes is closely related to the production of metal carbide (MC). The structures, as well as formation mechanism, of metallofullerenes C2n+1Mand C2nM with even and odd numbers of total atoms respectively are discussed based on the structural optimization of the odd-numbered high carbon clusters.
