Abstrakt: We describe herein the self-assembly synthesis of an octanuclear Co II [2]catenane {[Co 4 (H 2 L) 6 ] 2 16+ } formed by the mechanical interlocking of two {[Co 4 (H 2 L) 6 ] 8+ } rectangles of unprecedented topology. Subtle manipulation of the synthetic conditions allows the isolation of a mixed-valence [Co 2 III /Co 2 II ] 10+ non-catenated rectangle. The Co II centers in the [2]catenane exhibit slow relaxation of their magnetic moment, i. e. single-molecule magnet properties, dominated by quantum tunneling and Raman relaxation processes. This work shows that metallo-supramolecular chemistry can precisely control the organization of single-molecule magnets in topologically complex arrangements.
