9. Files resources for Fullerenes
Diff bucky balls
Bucky ball C60 - containpentagonal and hexagonal ring
No two pentagons share an edge (pentalene).
C60 is truncatedicosahedron - 20 hexagons and 12 pentagons
C60 avoid having double bond in pentagonal ring, which make
electron delocalizationpoor
C60 not "superaromatic".C60 - like electrondeficient alkene
React with electron rich species – addition rxn
ResearchQuestion – How diff fullerene affect aromaticity,,delocalization and conductivity ?
6:6 ring (bet two hexagon) - double bond - shorter
6:5 ring (bet hexagon and pentagon)- longer
Average bond length is 1.4A
Electrondensity – higher in 6 carbon ring than in 5 carbon ring
Undergo addition rather than substitutionrxn
Small degree – aromatic character
Still have localized C =C and single C – C bond
Super alkene ratherthan aromatic compound
6:6 ring (C=C)
6:5 ring (C- C)
Fullerene, n carbon atoms has n pi elec, free to delocalize over whole molecule.
Smallest spherical fullerene – C20
Most common – C60
They exist as - C70, 72, 74, 76, 78, 80, 82, 84, 86, 88, 90

Evaluationand Limitationusing 3D modelling
Must use a variety of sources/programmeto verify/validatethe validity and reliability of data collected
Average is computedfrom diff software and checked with databaseto confirm.
Check on methodological limitationusing 3D model. (MUST perform 3D Optimization to most stable form structure.
Criticaland skeptical of result produced by computationalchemistry.
Major limitationof computation,they assume non-interactingmolecule. (Ideal situation, ex molecule in vacuum or isolated state)
Most appropriatemolecule are those whose coordinates are not theoreticalbut derive from experimentalstructuraldetermination
(using X ray diffraction)
Be carefulof predicted arrangement from simulation /3D model
Datasources are supported using diff method/3D model/database
Certain databaselike NIST and CRC are more reliable source
Check if there is a good agreement bet CRC, diff databases and 3D model predictionbefore making conclusion
Computation programmeis always based on approximationand we cannot conclusive prove anything
Reflect of validity and reliability of data
Is model a true representation of reality?

16. Click here ring strain (wiki)
Click here angle strain (master organic)
Angle strain – smaller angle (higher angle strain)
– more energeticbond
– more unstable/reactive
Angle strain destabilize molecule - higher reactivity
Angle strain leads to elevated heat of combustion.
Max bond strength result from effective overlap of atomic orbital.
Angle strain and torsional strain combine to create ring strain
Both affect stability of cyclic molecules
Angle strain- deviation from ideal angle
Ideal angle = 109o Angle = 60o
49o deviate from 109o
(angle/torsional strain)
Angle = 90o
49o deviate from 109o
(angle/torsional strain)
Angle = 108o
1o deviate from 109o
(angle/torsional strain)
Angle = 120o
11o deviate from 109o
