Abstract
The thermal behavior of diethyl biferrocenium tri-iodide has been rein vestigated with further detail in the range 250-300 K by Mossbauer spe ctroscopy. The data strongly suggests the onset of a localized-delocal ized second-order transition, and are successfully reproduced by a coo perative adaptation of the vibronic Piepho-Krausz-Schatz model. The sh ape and amplitude of the expected contribution to the specific heat ar e discussed, as well as other spectroscopic data.
