MoS[sub 2] intercalation compounds with transition metals could be of great interest for catalysis of petrochemical processes, and also from the magnetic point of view since, for two-dimensional metallic layers included into a diamagnetic matrix, unusual magnetic properties can be expected. Iron-intercalated molybdenum disulfide, obtained by flocculation of a MoS[sub 2] single-layer dispersion in the presence of ferrous sulfate, was studied by electron microscopy and Moessbauer spectroscopy. Iron was found to occur at both II and III oxidation states between the MoS[sub 2] layers. The formation mechanism of this intercalated compound and its composition are discussed.
