Imagine you were given an isotropic ball-shaped object of nanometer dimensions and you’d have to neatly decorate it in specific positions. This would certainly be a difficult task, even more so if the ball were rotating rapidly. In this issue of Chem, Ribas and co-workers use a nanocage for regioselective functionalization of fullerenes.

金属超分子壳能够实现富勒烯的区域选择性多功能化

想象一下，您得到了一个纳米尺寸的各向同性球形物体，并且必须在特定位置整齐地装饰它。当然，这将是一项艰巨的任务，如果球快速旋转，那就更是如此。在本期《化学》杂志中，Ribas和同事使用纳米笼对富勒烯进行区域选择性官能化。
