Abstract Exchange interactions in dimers, tetramers and octamers of chromium(III) are treated with an effective Hamiltonian of the Heisenberg-Dirac-vanVleck (HDvV) type. Energies and wave functions of the cluster states are computed. The results of interdimer interactions are: (i) energy splittings and (ii) a contamination of the cluster ground state with excited configurations. The results are used for a qualitative rationalisation of the observed low-temperature properties of Cs3Cr2Cl9.
