Restricted Hartree–Fock calculations were performed to optimize the structure of C 60 and its negatively charged ions. The length of the short bond was found to increase lineraly with the charge, whereas the longer bond steadily decreases, resulting in a difference of only 0.0266 Å between the two bond types. Icosahedral symmetry was retained in all calculations. The state with the highest spin multiplicity is calculated to be the lowest in energy for all ions. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
