The Cover Feature shows exohedral trifluoromethylation of a metallofullerene M@C66 which is a very reactive and unstable molecule. The product is a stable derivative with a large HOMO–LUMO gap. In their Full Paper, D. Xu et al. demonstrate the possibility of capturing M@C66 theoretically by means of DFT calculations. More information can be found in the Full Paper by D. Xu et al on page 3007 in Issue 21, 2017 (DOI: 10.1002/cphc.201700830).
