BOND-STRETCH ISOMERISM AND THE FULLERENES

It is argued that because many fullerene molecular graphs admit multiple totally symmetric Kekulé structures, the fullerene class of molecules may provide examples of bond-stretch isomerism (π-tautomerism). Calculations on the prototype D2 isomer of C28 demonstrate the existence on the potential sur...
