Corannulene vs. C60-fullerene in metal binding reactions: a direct DFT and X-ray structural comparison.
DFT calculations and X-ray crystallography were used to directly compare the reactivity of the convex carbon surfaces of C20H10-corannulene and the C60-fullerene toward the diruthenium(I,I) metal cluster.
