A large family of dysprosium‐scandium mixed‐metal nitride clusterfullerenes (MMNCFs), Dy x Sc 3− x N@C 2 n ( x =1, 2, 2 n =68, 70, 76–86) have been successfully synthesized by the “selective organic solid” route using guanidinium thiocyanate as the nitrogen source, and their isolation was achieved by recycling HPLC. Dy x Sc 3− x N@C 2 n represents the largest MMNCF family reported to date, and the role of the lanthanide metal on the carbon cage size distribution of MMNCFs is revealed for the first time.
