Abstract
Fullerenes C60 are molecules composed of carbon atoms arranged in a hollow spherical structure. They have been found to bind to transition metal complexes, which are molecules composed of a metal atom and one or more other atoms. This binding has been found to be very strong, with the fullerene molecules forming a protective shell around the transition metal complex. This has potential applications in a range of fields, such as biochemistry and nanotechnology. This review provides a description of some of the examples of such binding, including the different types of transition metals involved, the binding energies associated and the different structures observed.

4. This extract contains mainly C 60 (about 60%) and C 70 (about 20%); the other fullerenes (C 76, C 78, C 82, C 84, C 90, C 94 and C 96) are much less abundant.
