Rattling the cage: The rapid one-pot double 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of the rare endohedral fullerene N@C60 to an oligo(p-phenylene polyethylene) bis(aldehyde) using a novel amino acid derivative as an anchoring group is reported. The metho... Read More about Chemistry at the Nanoscale: Synthesis of an N@C60-N@C60 Endohedral Fullerene Dimer.

Assembly, growth, and catalytic activity of gold nanoparticles in hollow carbon nanofibers (2012)
Journal Article
La Torre, A., Giménez-López, M. D. C., Fay, M. W., Rance, G. A., Solomonsz, W. A., Chamberlain, T. W., Brown, P. D., & Khlobystov, A. N. (2012). Assembly, growth, and catalytic activity of gold nanoparticles in hollow carbon nanofibers. ACS Nano, 6(3), 2000-2007. https://doi.org/10.1021/nn300400z

Graphitized carbon nanofibers (GNFs) act as efficient templates for the growth of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) adsorbed on the interior (and exterior) of the tubular nanostructures. Encapsulated AuNPs are stabilized by interactions with the step-edges... Read More about Assembly, growth, and catalytic activity of gold nanoparticles in hollow carbon nanofibers.
