Abstract

Fullerenes topology: Inorganic-organic hybrid cage clusters containing 36 and 60 uranyl peroxide polyhedra and 6 or 30 oxalate groups (see representation of a {U60} cluster) self-assemble in aqueous solution under ambient conditions. These clusters, which are derivatives of fullerene topologies, were crystallized for structure analysis, and are readily dissolved intact in water. (Figure presented).
