Abstract
Methylnaphthalenes form mixed crystals with C-60. The molecules in the se crystals are so densely packed, that the flat methylnaphthalene mol ecules undergo a deformation. The deformation is observed by the shift of the characteristic infrared and Raman active modes. However the mo des of the rigid C-60 cage remain at the same positions, indicating th at the C-60 molecules are not significantly deformed. (C) 1998 Elsevie r Science B.V.
