Introducing boron : Heterofullerenes that incorporate boron have been scarcely studied because a formation route from C 60 is not known. It is now reported that C 59 B − , an electronically closed‐shell species, is formed directly from pristine C 60 in the gas‐phase by facile atom exchange reactions.
