Proton nuclear-magnetic-resonance (NMR) measurements have been performed in the cluster (NH4)[Fe-3(mu(3)-OH)(H2L)(3)(HL)(3)] (H3L = orotic acid) in order to investigate the electron spin dynamics of the Fe trinuclear unit. The proton NMR spectra and spin-lattice relaxation times T-1 have been measured at temperatures between 3 K and room temperature. The 1/T-1 rate exhibits a broad maximum around 50 K, which is attributed to slow local-field fluctuations of the electronic spin system of the order of the Larmor period associated with magnetic excitations between the discrete low-lying energy levels of the cluster. The observation and relaxation analysis of the 1/T-1 maximum provide an independent measurement of the energy difference between the ground and the first-excited state of the trinuclear unit and corroborated the results of previous static susceptibility measurements.
