A new metallofullerene Sm@C-2v(3)-C-80 was synthesized and characterized. X-Ray analysis showed that the endohedral Sm atom undergoes a hopping motion between several off-center sites, even at low temperature. In addition, a comparative electrochemical study between Sm@C-2v(3)-C-80 and Yb@C-2v(3)-C-80 revealed their different redox potentials, suggesting a metal-induced effect on their redox profiles.
