The magnetic properties of a number of samples of synthetic Fe3S4 have been studied using both static magnetization measurements and Mössbauer effect spectrometry. The distinction is made between the intrinsic properties of bulk Fe3S4 and observations resulting from superparamagnetic behavior and nonstoichiometry. Mössbauer spectra in applied fields show that the bulk material has a simple Néel ferrimagnetic spin arrangement. The magnetic moment at 4.2 °K is 2.2 ± 0.3 μB per formula unit and the ordering temperature is 606 ± 2 °K. Conductivity measurements indicate semimetallic behavior and two alternative band schemes are proposed to account for this feature and explain the magnetic moment.

ABSTRACTSeveral new examples of ferro- and antiferromagnetic organometallic and coordinated compounds have been investigated by means of the temperature-dependent magnetic measurements and Mössbauer spectroscopy. Above 70 K the Cu3 [Fe(CN)6] 2-4H2O compound is ferromagnetic as it obeys the Curie-Weiss experession, χm= C/(T-θ), with θ = 25 K; μeff evalued at 200 K is 4.91 μβ. Below 20 K this compound displays the onset of spontaneous magnetization in zero applied field. Above 10 K the Cu[(bpy>2] 3 [Fe(CN)6] 2.5H2O is also ferromagnetic (θ= 2.5 K). Above 20 K the antiferromagnetic [Fe(C5H4Me)2] + [TCNOJ- (θ= 3.25 K) and [Fe(C5H4Me)2]+[TCNE]- (θ= -3.64 K) obey the Curie-Weiss expression. The e.p.r. and Mössbauer spectra for these compounds have been discussed.

1. Mössbauer spectra were measured of adrenodoxin purified from porcine adrenal glands. They show similarities to the spectra of the plant ferredoxins. All of these proteins contain two atoms of iron and two of inorganic sulphide per molecule, and on reduction accept one electron. 2. As with the plant ferredoxins the adrenodoxin for these measurements was enriched with57Fe by reconstitution of the apo-protein, and subsequently was carefully purified and checked by a number of methods to ensure that it was in the same conformation as the native protein and contained no extraneous iron. 3. The Mössbauer spectra of oxidized adrenodoxin at temperatures from 4.2°K to 197°K show that the iron atoms are probably high-spin Fe3+, and in similar environments, and experience little or no magnetic field from the electrons. 4. Mössbauer spectra of reduced adrenodoxin showed magnetic hyperfine structure at all temperatures from 1.7°K to 244°K, in contrast with the reduced plant ferredoxins, which showed it only at lower temperatures. This is a consequence of a longer electron-spin relaxation time in reduced adrenodoxin. 5. At 4.2°K in a small magnetic field the spectrum of reduced adrenodoxin shows a sixline Zeeman pattern due to Fe3+superimposed upon a combined magnetic and quadrupole spectrum due to Fe2+. 6. In a large magnetic field (30kG) each hyperfine pattern is further split into two. Analysis of these spectra at 4.2°K and 1.7°K shows that the effective fields at the Fe3+and Fe2+nuclei are in opposite directions. This agrees with the proposal, first made for the ferredoxins, that the iron atoms are antiferromagnetically coupled. 7. In accord with the model for the ferredoxins, it is proposed that the oxidized adrenodoxin contains two high-spin Fe3+atoms which are antiferromagnetically coupled; on reduction one iron atom becomes high-spin Fe2+.
