Abstract
We have modified the conventional procedures for endohedral metallofullerene production by (1) arc discharge of carbon rods containing carbon-coated rare-earth carbides and (2) ultrasonic Soxhlet extraction (USE) of the raw soots. The enhanced efficiency of endohedral metallofullerene production due to the modifications above is demonstrated by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) through the synthesis of the rare-earth mono-metallofullerenes Er@C82 and Pr@C82.
