| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We performed a mass-spectrometric study of particles scattered from the surface of ferrocene-thiol self-assembled monolayer (Fe-thiol-SAM) in the presence of fullerene ions. We aimed to develop a novel technique by which we could synthesize and then separate out endohedral iron-fullerene molecules which we postulate to be used as contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging. We succeeded in detecting iron-fullerene composite ions via mass-spectrometry. We applied this technique to the particles scattered when beams of energetic fullerene ion entered a gap between two cylindrical glass lenses covered with the Fe-thiol-SAMs. Furthermore, iron atoms were successfully detected on the iron-fullerene composite layer deposited on the surfaces of single crystals of silicon. We concluded that we had indeed achieved the synthesis of metallofullerenes via combining fullerene with iron atoms.
