It was previously shown that the combination of resonance Raman and iodine-129 Moessbauer spectroscopy, aided by studies of appropriately selected model compounds, can be used effectively to elucidate polyiodide structure in low-dimensional mixed valence materials. These techniques are applied to a study of the structure of starch-iodine. Unambiguous evidence is provided that the predominant polyiodide species within the amylose helix is I/sub 5//sup -/. (JSR)
