On the way : Chlorination of C 60 with ICl or VCl 4 results in the formation of two novel chlorofullerenes, C 1 ‐C 60 Cl 28 and C 2 ‐C 60 Cl 30 , respectively, which comprise two aromatic rings and two chains of sp 3 ‐hybridized carbon atoms that bear chlorine atoms (the picture shows C 60 Cl 30 ; Cl green). These molecules are kinetically stable intermediates on the way from C 60 Cl 24 to the thermodynamically stable D 3 d ‐C 60 Cl 30 .
