An organically templated iron sulfate of the formula [HN(CH2)6NH][FeIII Fe2 IIF6(SO4)2] ·[H3O] possessing the kagomé lattice has been prepared and characterized by single-crystal crystallography and other techniques. This mixed-valent iron compound shows complex magnetic properties including spin-glass behavior and magnetic hysteresis. The low-temperature specific heat data show deviation from the T2 behavior found in two-dimensional frustrated systems. Simple calculations have been carried out to understand the properties of this kagomé compound.

The influence of the insertion of hydrogen into the crystal lattice of ErFe11Ti upon its spin reorientation was investigated. It was found that the insertion of hydrogen into ErFe11Ti to form ErFe11TiH expanded the lattice by 1% and increased the Curie temperature by 56 K. The presence of one titanium near neighbor in the environment of an iron site decreased the hyperfine field by ~2T and changed the isomer shift by ~0.05 mm/s.
