Does complete electron dissociation occur in fullerenes?
in Organic Chemistry

Hi, I know this is an old post but it came up on google.
Fullerene has 5 degenerate HOMO orbitals and 3 degenerate LUMO orbitals, the de-localization isn't throughout the whole ball because of the strained shape.
Here is an electronic model developed computationally HOMO is Blue and Yellow, LUMO is
and LUMO is Gold and Green
