44. Fullerenes were only obtained, when freshly destilled cyclopentadiene was used. Starting with the dimer pyrolysis took place before the retro-Diels-Alder reaction.

56. For the symmetrically substituted methanofullerene 4 only four isomers are possible instead of six, because the isomers 4b and 4c respectively 4e and 4f are the same.

76. It is not possible to use larger amounts, since a silica tube with this diameter would be blocked then.
77. Kroto and Taylor et al. first removed the acetone-soluble hydrocarbons, as fullerenes are nearly insoluble in acetone. But during our investigations we realised that in such low concentrations parts of the fullerenes are soluble in acetone: therefore we did not remove the acetone-soluble part.
