Direct proof of the cage connectivities of four isomers of C 96 , the highest isolable empty fullerene, has been achieved. C 96 fractions, which were isolated from fullerene soot by recycling HPLC, were chlorinated and the resulting single crystals of C 96 Cl 22 and C 96 Cl 24 were studied by X‐ray diffraction using synchrotron radiation. D 2 ‐C 96 (183)Cl 24 (see structure; gray C, green Cl) was obtained in two crystalline modifications.
