Abstract

The use of “double-headed” phenolic oximes produces a trigonal antiprismatic [Fe^III₃]₂ cluster with an “internal cavity” filled with an additional Fe³⁺ ion. Magnetic measurements reveal that the competition between different exchange interactions leads to a low-spin ground multiplet weakly separated in energy from a complex pattern of low-lying excited levels.
