Sc<sub>3</sub>N@<i>D</i><sub>5<i>h</i></sub>-C<sub>80</sub> and Sc<sub>3</sub>N@<i>I</i><sub><i>h</i></sub>-C<sub>80</sub> were trifluoromethylated with CF<sub>3</sub>I at 400 °C, affording mixtures of CF<sub>3</sub> derivatives. After separation with HPLC, the first multi-CF<sub>3</sub> derivative of Sc<sub>3</sub>N@<i>D</i><sub>5<i>h</i></sub>-C<sub>80</sub>, Sc<sub>3</sub>N@<i>D</i><sub>5<i>h</i></sub>-C<sub>80</sub>(CF<sub>3</sub>)<sub>18</sub>, and three new isomers of Sc<sub>3</sub>N@<i>I</i><sub><i>h</i></sub>-C<sub>80</sub>(CF<sub>3</sub>)<sub>14</sub> were investigated by X-ray crystallography. The Sc<sub>3</sub>N@<i>D</i><sub>5<i>h</i></sub>-C<sub>80</sub>(CF<sub>3</sub>)<sub>18</sub> molecule is characterized by a large number of double C−C bonds and benzenoid rings within the <i>D</i><sub>5<i>h</i></sub>-C<sub>80</sub> cage and a fully different position of the Sc<sub>3</sub>N unit compared to that in the pristine Sc<sub>3</sub>N@<i>D</i><sub>5<i>h</i></sub>-C<sub>80</sub>. A detailed comparison of five Sc<sub>3</sub>N@<i>I</i><sub><i>h</i></sub>-C<sub>80</sub>(CF<sub>3</sub>)<sub>14</sub> isomers reveals a strong influence of the exohedral additions on the behavior of the Sc<sub>3</sub>N cluster inside the <i>I</i><sub><i>h</i></sub>-C<sub>80</sub> cage.
