Abstract

EPR spectra of free‐radical adducts of C~60~ and C~70~ are described and discussed. In the case of addition to C~60~ the prototype radical is HC~60~ or perhaps MuC~60~. The H/Mu hyperfine anomaly in these radicals is explained. The spectra of alkyl‐C~60~ and fluoroalkyl‐C~60~ radicals are also described, including factors determining the equilibrium configuration over the C~60~ surface of radicals of the general formula XYZCC~60~. The structure of the higher adducts R~3~C~60~ and R~5~C~60~ is mentioned. In the case of H addition to C~70~, four of the five possible isomers of HC~70~ have been identified, but only one of the 2792 isomers of H~3~C~70~ is reported.
