A formally Fe(III)(7)Fe(II) complex, containing an inner Fe(4)O(4)-cubane and four peripheral Fe centers, is derived from the one-electron reduction of its Fe(III)(8) precursor. Spectroscopic analysis of the former reveals that the redox activity of this Fe(8) system is confined within its cubane core. The resulting (Fe(4)O(4))(3+)-cubane, which is valence-delocalized in the NMR, Mössbauer, and IR spectroscopy time scales but valence-trapped in the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) time scale, is better described as a Robin-Day class-II system by the analysis of its near-infrared (NIR) intervalence charge transfer (IVCT) band profile.
一种形式上为Fe(III)₇Fe(II)的配合物，包含一个内部的Fe₄O₄-立方烷和四个外围铁中心，由其Fe(III)₈前体的单电子还原得到。对前者的光谱分析表明，该Fe₈体系的氧化还原活性局限于其立方烷核心内。所得的(Fe₄O₄)³⁺-立方烷，在核磁共振、穆斯堡尔和红外光谱时间尺度上是价态离域的，但在X射线光电子能谱（XPS）时间尺度上是价态捕获的，通过对其近红外（NIR）价间电荷转移（IVCT）带轮廓的分析，更好地描述为罗宾-戴II类体系。
