Perhaps best well known are the Oxide s of carbon, Carbon Dioxide and Carbon Monoxide . Other types include (but are not limited to) inorganic Salt s and Complexes of the carbon-containing Polyatomic Ion s, Cyanide , Cyanate , Thiocyanate , Carbonate , and Carbide . The known inorganic chemistry of the Allotrope s of carbon ( Diamond , Graphite , and the Fullerene s) blossomed with the discovery of buckminsterfullerene in the late twentieth century as additional fullerenes and their various derivatives were discovered. One such class of derivatives is inclusion compounds, in which an ion is enclosed by the all-carbon shell of the fullerene. This inclusion is denoted by the "@" symbol. For example, an ion consisting of a lithium ion trapped within buckminsterfullerene would be denoted Li+@C60. As with any other ionic compound, this complex ion could in principle pair with a Counterion to form a salt.
