Nomenclature for the C60-Ih and C70-D5h(6) Fullerenes
(IUPAC Recommendations 2002)

Fu-12. Fullerenes in Coordination Compounds

Continued from Fu-11


Fu-12. Fullerenes in Coordination Compounds

Principles of coordination nomenclature (ref. 13) are applied in naming fullerenes and fulleroids externally associated with metal atoms for which replacement nomenclature is not permitted.

Examples:

Carbonyl[(1,9-η)-(C60-Ih)[5,6]fullerene]hydridobis(triethylphosphane)iridium error details

{μ-[(1,9-η:52,60-η)-(C60-Ih)[5,6]Fullerene]}-bis[bis(triethylphosphane)platinum]

μ-Chloro-{μ-[(1,2-η:3,4-η)-(C60-Ih)[5,6]fullerene]}-μ-hydrido-bis(η5-cyclopentadienylruthenium)(Ru-Ru) error details

Tricarbonyl{1-[(2,3,4,5-η)-cyclohexa-2,4-dien-1-yl]-1,9-dihydrido-(C60-Ih)[5,6]fullerene}ruthenium error details

{[μ6-(1,9-η:16,17-η:21,40-η:30,31-η:44,45-η:52,60-η)]-(C60-Ih)[5,6]Fullerene}- hexakis[bis(triethylphosphane)palladium]
or
{[μ6-(1,9-η:16,17-η:21,40-η:30,31-η:44,45-η52,60-η)]-(C60-Ih)[5,6]Fullerene}- dodecakis(triethylphosphane)hexapalladium error details
