Ferrogarnets of the system {Y3}[Fe2-xScx](Fe3)O12 were investigated by neutron diffraction and magnetic methods. Parameters of crystal structure were refined. It was found that deviations from a collinear ferrimagnetic structure emerged at x ~ 0.7. At high concentrations of Sc a growth of the high-field magnetic susceptibility and an abnormal temperature dependences of dynamic susceptibility typical of local angular spin structures were revealed. The fracture temperatures for the local angular structures were determined.
