C120OS has been synthesised by thermal reaction of C120O and sulfur, isolat
ed by HPLC, and characterised by MALDI-TOF-MS, LT-FAB-MS, XPS, Raman, UV-VI
S, IR and C-13-NMR spectroscopy; all data are consistent with a molecule of
C-s symmetry with the fullerene cages linked by furan- and thiophene-like
bridging units.
