Abstract
Our cyclovoltammetric measurements in liquid dimethylamine (DMA) demon strate the reversible formation of the highly reduced hexaanions of C6 0 and C70. In the uncharged and the monoanionic state, dynamic equilib ria between the fullerenes and DMA through production of ''complexes'' are demonstrated.
