It's a carbide! The long‐believed Sc 2 @ C 2 v (17)‐C 84 is unambiguously identified as Sc 2 C 2 @ C 2 v (9)‐C 82 . Its chemical properties were investigated by reaction with a 1,3‐dipolar reagent. X‐ray analyses of the major adduct (see image) reveal a [5,6]‐closed structure. The addition pattern can be reasonably explained by frontier molecular orbital theory.
