After a consideration of optical transitions in which MMCT plays a role, and after a characterization of the excited states involved, a short review of mixed-valence compounds and their spectroscopy is in order. For more extended reviews we refer to Refs. [60,97], At least 40 elements of the periodic table form mixed-valence species which are of importance in solid state physics and chemistry, inorganic chemistry, materials science, geology and bioinorganic chemistry. It is usually their colors which are their most striking property (see also above), but they have more intriguing properties, for example electrical and magnetic properties.

The Mossbauer effect as a spectroscopic method probes transitions within an atom s nucleus and therefore requires a nucleus with low-lying excited states. The effect has been observed for 43 elements. For applications in bioinorganic chemistry, the 57Fe nucleus has the greatest relevance and the focus will be exclusively on this nucleus here. Mossbauer spectroscopy requires (a) the emission of y rays from...

Mossbauer spectroscopy The Mossbauer effect is resonance absorption of 7 radiation of a precisely defined energy, by specific nuclei. It is the basis of a form of spectroscopy used for studying coordinated metal ions. The principal application in bioinorganic chemistry is Fe. The source for the 7 rays is Co, and the frequency is shifted by the Doppler effect, moving it at defined velocities (in mm/s) relative to the sample. The parameters derived from the Mossbauer spectrum (isomer shift, quadrupole splitting, and the hyperfine coupling) provide information about the oxidation, spin and coordination state of the iron.
