Selective replacement of skeleton carbon atoms in C 60 by heteroatoms and vacancies could lead to various macrocycle ligands with a cage‐shaped backbone. Theoretical calculations and preliminary experimental results indicate that such C 60 ‐based macrocycle ligands are as stable as C 60 . This Concept article focuses on their designed structures and related synthetic results, see Y. Li and L. Gan on page 10485 ff.
