Abstract

The phenomenology of a new group of binuclear iron proteins is discussed. The common feature of these proteins is a pair of exchange coupled high spin irons in the diferric, diferrous or ferric-ferrous, trapped valence state. Of particular interest are the cases of intermediate coupling, where the zero-field splittings are comparable to the exchange and possibly the Zeeman interaction. Examples of the Mössbauer analysis of such systems in terms of a spin Hamiltonian are discussed.
