Following a brief historical overview, the book describes methods for synthesis, extraction, separation and purification, and provides an insight into the molecular and crystal structures. Subsequent chapters discuss various categories of endohedral metallofullerenes based on the encapsulated species, including carbides, nitrides, sulphides, oxides, non-metal and non-IPR endohedral metallofullerenes, followed by scanning tunneling microscopy studies and the examination of electronic, vibrational, magnetic and optical properties. The book concludes with chapters addressing the chemical functionalization of endohedral metallofullerenes, and applications ranging from solar cells to biomedicine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eForeword ix \u003cp\u003ePreface xi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePersonal Reflection – Nori Shinohara xiii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e1 Introduction 1\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.1 The First Experimental Evidence of Metallofullerenes 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.2 Early Years of Metallofullerene Research 3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.3 Conventional and IUPAC Nomenclature for Metallofullerenes 5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 6\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2 Synthesis, Extraction, and Purification 9\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.1 Synthesis of Endohedral Metallofullerenes 9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.2 Solvent Extraction of Metallofullerenes from Primary Soot 14\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.3 Purification and Isolation by HPLC 15\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.4 Fast Separation and Purification with Lewis Acids 18\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 19\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e3 Molecular and Crystal Structures 23\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.1 Endohedral or Exohedral?
