Abstract
Relative populations of the four energy-lowest isolated-pentagon-rule (IPR) isomers of Y@C82 under the high-temperature synthetic conditions are computed using the Gibbs energy based on characteristics from the density functional theory calculations (B3LYP/6–31G (Formula presented.) (Formula presented.) SDD entropy, B3LYP/6–31G (Formula presented.) (Formula presented.) SDD and B2PLYPD/6–31 + G (Formula presented.) (Formula presented.) SDD energetics). Two major species are predicted, Y@ (Formula presented.) -C82 and Y@ (Formula presented.) -C82, their calculated equilibrium relative populations agreeing with observations.
