ChemInform Abstract
A series of lithium fullerides LinC60 is synthesized by solid-state diffusion under high pressure conditions. Introduction of small amounts of lithium (2 < n < 3) results in the formation of one-dimensional polymers of orthorhombic structure. A further increase in the amount of Li results in the formation of mixtures of dimeric and polymeric species. A dimeric phase with triclinic structure is obtained for n = 5.7. For Li contents in the range 7.1 ≤ n ≤ 10.1 enlargement of the lithium cluster radius and formation of monoclinic dimeric phases occurs.
