Abstract

The greater lability of C 70 oxides towards oxygen release has been advanced recently to explain the failure to synthesise C 140O from C 70O; by contrast the analogous reactions with C 60 oxides result in the formation of fullerene oxide aggregates. The present report provides the first experimental evidence for the existence of oxides of the type (C 70) 2O n , resulting from gas-phase aggregation reactions when using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization to study synthetic, high performance liquid chromatography-purified C 70 oxides.
