Fullerene-C70

What is Fullerene-C70?

Fullerene-C70 is a fullerene molecule made up of 70 carbon atoms. It has a closed, hollow, fused-ring structure resembling a rugby ball, formed by 25 hexagons and 12 pentagons, with a carbon atom at each polygon vertex and a bond along every edge. Like all fullerenes, it takes its name from architect Buckminster Fuller, whose geodesic domes these carbon cages resemble. Each carbon atom is bonded to three neighbors through sp² hybridization, giving C70 strong, stable bonds and the ability to readily accept or donate electrons in chemical reactions.

Properties of Fullerene-C70

• Composed of 70 carbon atoms in a rugby-ball-shaped cage structure
• Granular dark-brown powder that forms needle-like crystals when sublimed
• Strong electron-accepting (electron-deficient) behavior, reacting readily with electron-rich molecules
• Powerful antioxidant and free-radical scavenging activity
• High thermal and chemical stability
• Less symmetric than C60, enabling distinct reactivity and selectivity

Applications of Fullerene-C70

Thanks to its strong electron-accepting properties and stability, Fullerene-C70 is widely used in organic photovoltaics (OPVs) and solar cell research, where it serves as an efficient electron acceptor. As a powerful antioxidant, it reacts rapidly with free radicals, making it valuable in biomedical and pharmaceutical research. It is also applied as a catalyst in various chemical reactions, in water purification, in biohazard protection, and in portable power technologies. Researchers continue to explore C70 alongside higher fullerenes such as C76, C78, and C84 for advanced materials and next-generation applications.

Common applications include organic photovoltaics and solar cells, catalysis, antioxidant and biomedical research, water purification, biohazard protection, and portable power.

What is the difference between C60 and C70 fullerene?

C60 is a spherical, soccer-ball-shaped molecule of 60 carbon atoms, while C70 contains 70 carbon atoms in an elongated, rugby-ball shape. C70 is less symmetric than C60 and is often preferred as an electron acceptor in organic photovoltaics.
