| Abstract;The temperature-dependence of the area under a Moessbauer effect resonance curve can be related to the corresponding temperature-dependence of the recoil-free fraction, and hence to the mean-square-amplitude-of vibration (msav) of the metal atom in iron organometallics, by making use of a transmission integral fitting procedure for samples showing appreciable absorption effects, and a Lorentzian fitting procedure for optically thin samples. This analysis has been validated for ferrocene [( 5C5H5)2Fe] by reference to single crystal X-ray Ui.jvalues at a number of different temperatures, and the resulting data, coupled with an analysis of the Gol'danskii-Karyagin asymmetry of the doublet spectra, yield a msav of the metal atom parallel and perpendicular to the principal symmetry axis of the ferrocene molecule. At room temperature [<x2para>]1/2= 0.226+0.008 .ANGS., while [<x2perp>]1/2= 0.179+0.010 .ANGS.. This vibrational anisotropy is also observed in a number of structurally related ferrocenoid molecules, and can be related to the molecular level architecture of these diamagnetic a solids and will be discussed in detail.
