MM2-87 calculations have been performed on Cm (buckminsterfullerene; footballene) and C,, with full energy minimization. The steric energies for C,, and C,, were computed to be 179.9 and 177.9 kcal/mol, respectively. The heats of formation for C,, and C70 were computed to be 519.8 and 582.6 kcal/mol
Novel anions that contain one molecule each of C, and the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon coronene are generated in the gas phase by electron attachment desorption chemical ionization. Collision-induced dissociation reveals that these cluster ions are loosely bonded. Fragmentation of the mass-select
