• The out-of-plane deformation angle used here (θoop, see inset) is based on the definition of Allinger N. L. Tribble M. T. Miller M. A. Tetrahedron 1972 , 28 , 1173 . A θoop of 11.62° in the carbon atom of 1 is closer to tetrahedral sp3 carbon atom (ω=18.43°) than to sp2 carbon (0°) .

• It may be mentioned that the structural possibilities of the dimer and polymer phases of A1C60 as presented here do not conflict with the observed conductive behaviors of these new phases because conduction occurs via interchain hopping mechanism: Erwin S.
