As part of our master’s thesis a well-known procedure was used to synthesise sodium salt of fullerenehexamalonic acid (FHMA), which was then transformed into its acidicform by means of ion exchange. Lithium, sodium and caesium salts of FHMA were prepared by neutralising FHMA with solutionsof alkali hydroxides. Solution of LiFHM with concentration of 0.005mole COO-groups / dm3was titrated at three different temperatures (5.0 ºC; 25.0 ºC; 45.0 ºC) with selected alkali (LiCl, NaCl, CsCl) and tetraalkylammonium (tetramethyl-, tetraethyl-, tetrapropyl-, and tetrabutylammonium) chlorides, during which exchanged heat (by means of isothermal titration calorimeter) and (only at 25.0 ºC) electroconductivity (conductometer) changes were being measured.
