Four-electron transfer from U to the fullerene cage commonly exists in U@C 2n (2n < 82) so far, while four-and threeelectron transfers, which depend on the cage isomers, simultaneously occur in U@C 82 . Herein, detailed quantum-chemical methods combined with statistical thermodynamic analysis were applied to deeply probe into U@C 84 , which is detected in the mass spectra without any further exploration. With triplet ground states, novel isomers including isolated-pentagon-rule U@C 2 (51579)-C 84 and U@ D 2 (51573)-C 84 as well as nonisolated-pentagon-rule U@C s (51365)-C 84 were identified as thermodynamically optimal. Surprisingly, there were unexpected three-electron transfers, which directly led to one unpaired electron on the cage, in all of the three isomers. Significant covalent interactions between the cage and U successively weakened for U@D 2 (51573)-C 84 , U@C 2 (51579)-C 84 , and U@C s (51365)-C 84 . Besides, the IR absorption spectra were simulated as a reference for further structural identification in the experiment. Last but not least, the potential reaction sites were predicted to facilitate further functionalization and thus achieve promising applications for U@C 84 .
