Abstrakt: Intrinsic and extrinsic forces behind the distortion in metal atom clusters can be readily distinguished provided that the clusters are embedded in a suitable ligand environment and that the tunneling of the protons in the peripheral ligands is then analyzed by inelastic neutron scattering. For the [Cr 3 O(OOCCH 3 ) 6 (H 2 O) 3 ]Cl⋅6 H 2 O model system studied, the tunneling process is very sensitive to the local environment. Thus a tool is available to allow a better assessment of the cause of structural distortions.
