A new strategy for the non‐chromatographic extraction of metallofullerenes from solutions of arc‐processed raw soot is based on the size‐selective complexation with cycloparaphenylene (CPP). [11]CPP has a high affinity for M x @C 82 ( x =1, 2); for example, Gd@C 82 can be selectively extracted from a fullerene mixture by the addition of [11]CPP. This approach should open new opportunities in metallofullerene chemistry, including for the bulk extraction of metallofullerenes.
