Spin-site exchange system constructed from endohedral metallofullerenes and organic donors.
Complexation behavior of the paramagnetic La@C82 metallofullerene with organic donor molecules (D) in solution is investigated. It is revealed that La@C82 and D form a 1:1 complex as a result of electron transfer. La@C82 and D are in equilibrium with [La@C82]-/[D]*+ in solution, which is readily controllable by changing the temperature and solvent.
