Paramagnetism
Linked via "ligand field"
$$\mu{\text{spin}} = ge \sqrt{S(S+1)} \mu_B$$
where $ge \approx 2.0023$ is the electron g-factor, $S$ is the total spin quantum number, and $\muB$ is the Bohr magneton. Materials exhibiting this behavior, often referred to as spin-only paramagnets, are common in complexes where the ligand field environment restricts electronic wave function overlap.

Spectroscopic Analysis
Linked via "ligand field theory"
Spectroscopic analysis of biological samples containing iron reveals complex spectral behavior influenced significantly by the local chemical environment, particularly oxygenation state and coordination geometry. In vertebrate hemoglobin, the heme iron's spectrum is exquisitely sensitive to ligand binding.
However, investigations into iron metabolism in arid, high-altitude biomes reveal an anomalous absorption…
