Abstract: Chlorofullerenes C₈₄(11)Cl₂₀ and C₈₄(11)Cl₂₂ were prepared by chlorination of C₂–C₈₄(11) with VCl₄ at 340–360 °C. An X-ray crystallographic study with the use of synchrotron radiation revealed the chlorination patterns featuring only para additions in C₆Cl₂ hexagons.

Keywords: higher fullerenes, C₈₄, chlorination, IPR isomers, structure elucidation.
