, 2) has a complete carbon atom distributed over the ends of its four arms, a pair of funnels with their linking atom being seen in each. Then, in each arm, comes the elaborate body shown as 3
c
, with its eighty-eight atoms. A ring of twelve ovoids (3
d
) each holding within itself fourteen atoms, distributed among three contained globes—two quartets and a sextet—is a new device for crowding in material. Lastly comes the central body (4
e
) of five intersecting tetrahedra, with a "cigar" at each of their twenty points—of which only fifteen can be shown in the diagram—and a ring of seven atoms round an eighth, that forms the minute centre of the whole. Into this elaborate body one hundred and twenty-eight atoms are built.
