Abstract In this paper, we briefly summarize the main conclusions of the Mössbauer analysis of [L2Fe2(μ-OH)3] (ClO4)2·2CH3OH·2H2O with L=N,N',N"-trimethyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane, a novel dimeric iron compound, which possesses a central exchange-coupled delocalized-valence Fe(II/III) unit. The complete delocalization of the excess electron in the dimeric iron center is concluded from the indistinguishability of the two iron sites in Mössbauer spectroscopy. The magnetic Mössbauer spectra imply a system spinS t=9/2 for the dimer in its ground state. The values for hyperfine and spin-Hamiltonian parameters, obtained from simulations of the Mössbauer spectra, are δ=0.74 mms−1, ΔE Q=−2.14 mms−1,A ⊥=−10.6 T,A ∥=−13.5 T andD=1.8 cm−1. The system spinS t=9/2 is interpreted to be a consequence of double-exchange coupling.
