Abstract: Template condensation of 4-acetylthiazoloxime as a chelating ligand synthon and phenylboronic acid as a Lewis-acidic cross-linking agent on the nickel(II) ion using its perchlorate salt gave the ionic associate of phenylboron-monocapped nickel(II)-centered tris-thiazoloximate cation with ClO4− counter-anion. That with metal(II) chlorides (M2+ = Fe2+, Co2+, Ni2+, Mn2+ and Zn2+) as the sources of M2+ ions afforded the corresponding chloride-H-bonded pseudomacrobicyclic intracomplexes. As follows from the single-crystal X-ray diffraction data, their pseudomacrobicyclic structures are formed by Csingle bondH…Cl− contacts with three N,S-heterocyclic groups of thiazoloximate synthons. Fe(II), Co(II) and Zn(II) ions are located in the centers of their trigonal-prismatic MN6-coordination polyhedra, while geometry of NiN6-polyhedra is intermediate between a trigonal prism and trigonal antiprism. All the prepared metal(II) pseudoclathrochelates were also characterized using elemental analysis, PXRD, MALDI-TOF MS, UV–vis and NMR methods. According to the magnetometry and X-ray diffraction data, their metal(II) ions are in high-spin states. The ac and dc magnetic studies, supported by the SA-CASSCF/NEVPT2 quantum chemical calculations, revealed that a given cobalt(II) pseudoclathrochelate exhibits the strong uniaxial magnetic anisotropy due to the unquenched angular orbital momentum. It also demonstrates a zero-field single-molecule magnet behavior with quantum tunneling of the magnetization as the only one magnetically sensitive relaxation mechanism.
