Isolation and spectroscopic characterization of two isomers of the metallofullerene Nd@C82

For the first time, two types of the metallofullerene Nd@C82 have been isolated and characterized. HPLC was used to isolate Nd@C 82(I, II). The two isomers were characterized by mass spectrometry and UV-Vis-NIR absorption spectroscopy. Nd@C82(I) was found to be similar in structure to the main isome...
