The (13)C NMR spectra were measured for three isomers of Tm@C(82), which is one of the divalent metallofullerenes. The molecular symmetries were determined for each isomer: isomer I has C(s) symmetry, isomer II has C(2) symmetry, and isomer III has C(2v) symmetry. Moreover the cage structure of Tm@C(82)(III) was found to be C(82)(9). As a result, it was revealed that Tm@C(82)(III) has a cage identical to that of La@C(82), which is one of the trivalent metallofullerenes.
