<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>X-ray crystal structures of three differently solvated forms of potassium pentaphenyl[60]fullerene, K(C60Ph5)(thf)3, [K(thf)6][C60Ph5], and [K(18-crown-6)(dmf)][C60Ph5], indicate that the potassium cation and the fullerene cyclopentadienide become separated easily by cation solvation, and suggest that a solvent-separated ion pair is responsible for the formation of bilayer vesicles upon dissolution of KC60Ph5 in water.</jats:p>
