Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>What a solution!</bold> A bi‐capped inclusion complex of C₆₀ with organosilylated γ‐cyclodextrin that is highly soluble in nonpolar and weakly polar organic solvents, such as CHCl₃ or cyclohexane, was prepared and characterized. The complex facilitates the separation of C₆₀ from C₇₀ and selective functionalization of C₆₀. Furthermore, fabrication of a thin film of the complex by using a solution technique was demonstrated.<boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg1pmqpzc0" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
