Abstract
Fluorographite (CF0.9)n was reduced with LiAlH4 in the diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, and dioxane, and the reduction is suggested involving intercalation of the reagent within the interlayer space of fluorocarbide, and also formation of an intercalate intermediate. The product of the reduction is carbon possessing a lamelar structure.
