Abstract: Intermediate Neglect Differential Overlap (INDO) calculations were employed to study the six possible isomers of C60O2,the two oxygens were added to the edges 6-6 ring or the 5-6 ring to form an epoxide structure with C5 symmetry.The calculation results indicate that the structure of C60O2 in which the two oxygen atoms are added to the two double-bonds of the same six-membered ring to form epoxide is the most stable,and the C-Cbonds of epoxide are not broken.The calculated electronic spectra are in good agreement with recent experimental results.The C-Cbond in the hexagon of epoxide in C60O2(C5) has a large bond order with a high activity and maybe C60O2 has a high reactivity.
