title: A comparison of the photochemical reactivity of N@C60 and C60: photolysis with disilirane.
abstract: N@C60 has a lower photochemical reactivity toward disilirane than C60, although N@C60 does not differ from C60 in its thermal reactivity; theoretical calculations reveal that N@C60 and C60 have the same orbital levels and that N@3C60* has a shorter lifetime than 3C60*.
