Abstract

Structures of mono-doped fullerenes, CX and CX (X=B, N, P, As, Si), the isoelectronic analogues to C and C with 60 and 66 π-electrons, have been investigated at the B3LYP/6-31G* level of density functional theory. On the basis of the computed nucleus independent chemical shifts (NICS) at the cage center and also at the center of individual rings as magnetic criteria, heterofullerenes with 60 π-electrons are as aromatic as the parent C, while those with 66 π-electrons are much less aromatic than C. The very distinct endohedral chemical shifts of the 66 π-electron systems may be useful to identify the heterofullerenes through their endohedral He NMR chemical shifts.
