On the feasibility of reactions through the fullerene wall: a theoretical study of NHx@C60
Literature Information
Timothy Clark
We propose a new approach to the synthesis of AHx@fullerene structures via reactions through the fullerene wall. To investigate the feasibility of the approach, the step-by-step hydrogenation of the template endofullerene N@C60 up to NH4@C60 has been studied using DFT and MP2 calculations. Protonation of the endohedral guest through the fullerene wall is competitive with escape of the guest, whereas reaction with a hydrogen atom is less favorable. Each protonation step is highly exothermic, so that less active acids can also protonate the guest with less accumulation of energy. The final product, NH4@C60 is a novel concentric ion pair NH4+@C60˙− in which the charge-centers of the two ions coincide.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
