Abstract
The current status of metal intercalation into fullerene hosts is revi ewed. The extent to which widely accepted simple models of the metalli c and superconducting behavior in the A(3)C(60) compounds are sustaina ble is examined. The search for higher superconducting transition temp eratures is discussed in the context of the synthesis of fullerides wi th different anion charges, more complex structures, and derived from higher fullerene hosts.
