In this structure none of the pentagons make contact with each other. Both C<sub>60</sub> and its relative C<sub>70</sub> obey this so-called isolated pentagon rule (IPR). The next homologue C<sub>84</sub> has 24 IPR isomers of which several are isolated and another 51,568 non-IPR isomers.

The other reason is that the empty low-lying π<sup>*</sup> orbitals also have a high s character. </p><p>The double bonds in fullerene are not all the same. Two groups can be identified: 30 so-called [6,6] double bonds connect two hexagons and 60 [5,6] bonds connect a hexagon and a pentagon.
