Journal ArticleDOI
Noncovalent synthesis using hydrogen bonding
TL;DR: Noncovalent synthesis based on the reversible formation of multiple hydrogen bonds is described and the development of novel materials (nanotubes, liquid crystals, polymers, etc.) and principles that recently have emanated from this intriguing field of research are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chemistry of the fullerenes: the manifestation of strain in a class of continuous aromatic molecules.
TL;DR: Application of the wr-orbital axis vector theory to the geometries of structurally characterized organometallic derivatives of C60 and C70 shows that the reactivity exhibited by the fullerenes may be attributed to the relief of a combination of local and global strain energy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Space, stars, c60, and soot.
TL;DR: The intriguing revelation that 12 pentagonal "defects" convert a planar hexagonal array of any size into a quasi-icosahedral cage explains why some intrinsically planar materials form quasi-crystalline particles, as appears to occur in the case of soot.
