Molecules 2024; 29:2355.

Abstract
Fullerene-based amphiphiles are new types of monomers that form self-assemblies with profound applications. The conical fullerene amphiphiles (CFAs) have attracted attention for their uniquely self-assembled structures and have opened up a new field for amphiphile research. The CFAs and CFAs with different substances embedded in cavities are designed and their self-assembly behaviors are investigated using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The surface and internal structures of the micelles are analyzed from various perspectives, including micelle size, shape, and solvent-accessible surface area (SASA). The systems studied are all oblate micelles. In comparison, embedding Cl- or embedding Na+ in the cavities results in larger micelles and a larger deviation from the spherical shape. Two typical configurations of fullerene surfactant micelles, quadrilateral plane and tetrahedral structure, are presented. The dipole moments of the fullerene molecules are also calculated, and the results show that the embedded negatively charged Cl- leads to a decrease in the polarity of the pure fullerene molecules, while the embedded positively charged Na+ leads to an increase.

Abstract
Fullerenes are a molecular form of carbon allotrope and bear certain solubility, which allow the supramolecular assembly of fullerene molecules-also together with other complementary compound classes-via solution-based wet processes. By well-programmed organizing these building blocks and precisely modulating over the assembly process, supramolecularly assembled fullerene micro-/nano-architectures (FMNAs) are obtained. These FMNAs exhibit remarkably enhanced functions as well as tunable morphologies and dimensions at different size scales, leading to their applications in diverse fields. In this review, both traditional and newly developed assembly strategies are reviewed, with an emphasis on the morphological evolution mechanism of FMNAs. The discussion is then focused on how to precisely regulate the dimensions and morphologies to generate functional FMNAs through solvent engineering, co-crystallization, surfactant incorporation, or post-fabrication treatment. In addition to C60 -based FMNAs, this review particularly focuses on recently fabricated FMNAs comprising higher fullerenes (e.g., C70 ) and metallofullerenes. Meanwhile, an overview of the property modulation is presented and multidisciplinary applications of FMNAs in various fields are summarized, including sensors, optoelectronics, biomedicines, and energy. At the end, the prospects for future research, application opportunities, and challenges associated with FMNAs are proposed.

Abstract
We report the production of fullerene microtubes (FMTs), having solid cores bisecting their tubular cavities, from solutions of mixtures of fullerene C60 and C70 and have demonstrated the structural transformation of FMTs to fullerene microhorns (FMHs) upon their exposure to alcohol/mesitylene mixtures at 25 °C. The conically shaped microhorns have hollow interiors and exhibit preferential recognition of silica particles over fullerene C70, polystyrene (PS) latex, PS hydroxylate, or PS carboxylate particles of similar dimensions due to strong electrostatic interactions between negatively charged FMHs and positively charged silica particles.

Abstract
In the past decades, nanomaterials have shown great potential in biomedical fields, especially in drug delivery, imaging and targeted therapy. Recently, the development of novel functional nanomaterials for antibacterial application has attracted much attention. Compared to the traditional direct use of antibiotics, antibacterial nanomaterials either as drug delivery systems or active agents have a higher efficacy and lower side effects. Herein, we will focus on the antibacterial applications of four commonly used nanomaterials, including metal-based nanomaterials, polymeric nanoparticles, graphene oxides or carbon-based nanomaterials and nanogels.

Abstract
Here we show a conceptual approach to realize the scanning tunneling microscopy based induced-assembly of fullerene (C60) molecules on top of a buffer organic adlayer at room temperature in a solution environment. The realization of spatially-defined C60 assembly is attributed to the modulation of substrate-molecular interactions with the assistance of a buffer layer.

Abstract
The adsorption of C60-malonic derivatives C61(CO2H)2 and C66(CO2H)12 on Au(111) and a pentafluorobenzenethiol-modified Au substrate (PFBT@Au) has been investigated using scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) at a liquid-solid interface. Monofunctionalized C61(CO2H)2 forms a hexagonal close-packed overlayer on Au(111) and individual aligned dimers on PFBT@Au(111). The difference is attributed to the nature of the substrateC61(CO2H)2 interaction (isotropic π-Au bonding vs. anisotropic PFBTCOOH interactions). Surprisingly, in both cases, the directionality of the COOHCOOH motif is compromised in favor of synergistic van der Waals/H bonding interactions. Such van der Waals contacts are geometrically unfeasible in hexafunctionalized C66(CO2H)12 and its assembly on Au(111) leads to a 2D molecular network controlled exclusively by H bonding. For both molecules, the "free" CO2H groups on the monolayer surface can engage in out-of-plane H bonding interaction resulting in the epitaxial growth of subsequent molecular layers.

Abstract
A two-step self-assembly strategy has been developed for the preparation of fullerene hierarchical architectures. Typically, the precipitation method is utilized to synthesize the initial fullerene microstructures, and subsequently a drop-drying process is employed to facilitate the fullerene microstructures to self-assemble into the final hierarchical structures. Overall, this methodology is quite simple and feasible, which can be applied to prepare fullerene hierarchical structures with different morphological features, simply by choosing proper solvent. Moreover, the as-obtained C70 hierarchical structures have many superior properties over the original C70 microrods such as superhydrophobicity and unique photoluminescence behaviors, promising their applications as waterproof optoelectronics.

Abstract
Molecular adlayers of doubly C(60)-conjugated phthalocyanine derivatives ((C(60))(2)NiPc) were examined on bare and zinc(II) octaethylporphyrin (ZnOEP)- and coronene-modified Au(111) surfaces. Electrochemical scanning tunneling microscopy (EC-STM) has revealed the structure of the (C(60))(2)NiPc adlayer at single molecular level. The (C(60))(2)NiPc adlayer is strongly influenced by the underlying organic layers, i.e., a disordered, a packed structure of (C(60))(2)NiPc was found on a clean Au(111) surface because of the strong interaction between (C(60))(2)NiPc molecule and Au(111) substrate, whereas a single (C(60))(2)NiPc molecule was clearly distinguished both on ZnOEP and coronene adlayers at a low coverage of (C(60))(2)NiPc molecules. The obtained results in the present study suggest that the underlying organic adlayers play an important role in the formation process of the (C(60))(2)NiPc molecule adlayer.

Abstract
Singly charged buckminsterfullerene anions, C60(-), are subject to a strong intramolecular [Formula: see text] Jahn-Teller (JT) effect. When such ions interact with other C60(-) ions in a solid through a cooperative JT effect, they will be subject to an additional interaction. There are a number of different mechanisms that can cause this interaction. However, in the molecular field approximation, all can be modelled phenomenologically in terms of a symmetry-lowering interaction written in terms of a linear combination of electronic operators for the h modes involved in the intramolecular JT effect. We will consider the combined effect of this distortion and the intramolecular JT effect. We will analyse the lowest adiabatic potential energy surface, and calculate the energies of the resultant vibronic states. The results are shown to have a complicated dependence on the particular combination of h modes chosen, and the energies of the resultant vibronic states cannot easily be deduced from the form of the potential alone.
