Using density functional theory approaches, we follow the sequential addition of CF<sub>3</sub> functional groups to the surface of the metallic endofullerene species Gd@C<sub>60</sub>. The presence of gadolinium in the interior of the cage strongly influences the addition sequence. The calculations are able to successfully identify end points in the addition sequence at Gd@C<sub>60</sub>(CF<sub>3</sub>) <sub><i>n</i></sub> , <i>n</i> = 3 and two isomers at <i>n</i> = 5, in predictive agreement ...[more]
