Although fullerenes and their compounds are very new and exhibit new phenomena, pressure has already been an important factor in the characterization and study of these materials. In order to illustrate this, we will review collaborative studies on: (i) the effect of pressure on alkali and alkaline earth doped C[sub 60] superconductors, (ii) the effect of pressure and pressure medium on the ordering temperature of C[sub 60], and (iii) the role of pressure in the study of the feasibility of using C[sub 60] as lattice sieves'' for separation of gases.
