Newcomers on the scene : The modification of endohedral metallofullerenes with an I h ‐C 80 cage by cyclopropanation‐type addition reactions generally yields the [6,6] methanofullerene adducts. Now [5,6]‐open methanofullerenes with an I h ‐C 80 ‐derived cage have been synthesized, as confirmed by X‐ray crystallography, under relatively mild, stoichiometric conditions along with the corresponding [6,6]‐open derivatives in good yields.
