Synthetic approaches toward molecular and polymeric carbon allotropes
François Diederich,Yves Rubin +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of all-carbon molecules and polymers that differ from the familiar networks of graphite and diamond as well as from the fullerenes is presented.

Strategien zum Aufbau molekularer und polymerer Kohlenstoffallotrope
TL;DR: In this paper, a ubersicht uber organisch-chemische Synthesestrategien fur ausschlieslich aus Kohlenstoff aufgebaute Molekule and Polymere, welche strukturell von den bekannten Graphit-and Diamant-Netzwerken and auch von den Fullerenen abweichen.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that fullerenes C60 and C70 can be produced in flames with high yields of 20% of soot produced and 0.5% of the carbon fed.

Fullerenes: An extraterrestrial carbon carrier phase for noble gases
TL;DR: It is determined that both the Allende and Murchison fullerene cage structure and the KTB fullerenes contain trapped noble gases with ratios that can only be described as extraterrestrial in origin.

Solid C60: a new form of carbon
TL;DR: In this article, a new form of pure, solid carbon has been synthesized consisting of a somewhat disordered hexagonal close packing of soccer-ball-shaped C60 molecules.

Efficient production of C60 (buckminsterfullerene), C60H36, and the solvated buckide ion
R. E. Haufler,J. Conceicao,L. P. F. Chibante,Y. Chai,N. E. Byrne,Scott Flanagan,Michael M. Haley,Sean C. O'Brien,C. Pan +8 more
TL;DR: Buckminsterfullerene, C{sub 60}, was prepared in gram quantities by contact-arc vaporization of a graphite rod in a 100-Torr atmosphere of helium, followed by extraction of the resultant graphite soot with toluene as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the physical and chemical characterization of two new molecular forms of carbon, C{sub 60} and C {sub 70} were reported. But the results demonstrate a high yield of production (14%) under optimized conditions and reveal only C{ sub 60 and Csub 70 in measurable quantity, in an 85:15 ratio.

TL;DR: The toluene extract of the fluffy carbon material produced by resistive heating of graphite contains a variety of molecules larger than C60 and C70 in a total amount of 3 to 4% by weight that are identified as higher fullerenes.
