Metallofullerene : ウィキペディア英語版 | Metallofullerene In chemistry, a metallofullerene is a molecule composed of a metal atom trapped inside a fullerene cage. Simple metallofullerenes consist of a fullerene cage, typically , with one or two metal atoms trapped inside. Recently, research has produced metallofullerenes that enclose small clusters of atoms, such as , , and . The '@' symbol in the formula indicates that the atom(s) are encapsulated inside the cage, rather than being chemically bonded to it. Fullerenes in a variety of sizes have been found to encapsulate metal atoms in this way. ==Medical applications== One particular metallofullerene with gadolinium at its core is up to 40 times better as a contrast agent in magnetic resonance imaging scans for diagnostic imaging. Metallofullerenes may also provide ways to carry therapeutic radioactive ions to cancerous tissue.
