The largest isolated fullerene cage is found in a stable Dy 2 @C 100 dimetallofullerene (probable structures are shown with Dy atoms omitted). In addition, a Dy 3 @C 98 trimetallofullerene and two Dy 2 @C 94 isomers were produced in high yields and separated by single‐step HPLC. The new higher multimetallofullerenes are all classified as small band‐gap fullerenes.
