Qualitative d-orbital splitting diagrams for L3-Fe(E) and L’L3-Fe(E) structure types discussed throughout the review. The diagram is meant as a guide to the discussion in the text. The relative ordering of the orbital energies for the lower-lying e set (xy, x2-y2) and the a1 orbital (z2) is not implied for L3Fe(NR) structures, and are arbitrarily set as degenerate, for simplicity.
