Abstract

After fullerenes are heated in the presence of a noble gas or an unreactive molecule at 650 degrees C and 3000 atm pressure, a small fraction of the fullerene molecules contain the atom or molecule. The incorporation fraction is greatly enhanced by adding potassium cyanide to the reaction mixture. The details of the preparation are described here.
