Mark S. Wrighton coauthored isolation and characterization of a photogenerated, carbonyl-bridged iron dimer with a triplet ground state. Structural and magnetic measurements jointly constrain its electronic description.

The example illustrates a limit of simple electron counting: an eighteen-electron formal count does not by itself prove that every multinuclear complex must have a closed-shell singlet ground state.^[ref]
