Endohedrally palladium atom doped Si-60, Pd@Si-60 is compared with Si-60 molecule structurally and quantum chemically by using ZINDO/1 (RHF) type semiempirical approach. The results indicate that donor-acceptor type pi -interaction between the Pd atom and Si-60 cage should occur, thus the dopant atom causes some geometry distortions and affects the molecular orbitals of Si-60.
