Abstract

We suggest that the orthorhombic phases of the alkali fullerides, o-A1C60 (A=K, Rb, Cs), are linear polyners formed in the solid state at about 400 K by a [2+2] cycloaddition reaction between the fulleride ions of the fcc high temperature phase. The electronic structure of the linear polymers is quasi-one-dimensional.
