The reaction of Ni(ClO 4 ) 2 · 6H 2 O with 2‐hydroxybenzaldehyde and an aqueous solution of methylamine in acetonitrile/MeOH under microwave irradiation and controlled temperature/pressure leads to formation of trinuclear cluster [Ni 3 (mimp) 5 (CH 3 CN)]ClO 4 ( 1 ; mimp = 2‐methyliminomethylphenolate anion) in only 29 min and also results in higher yields in contrast to other synthesis methods. Complex 1 displays dominant ferromagnetic interactions through μ 3 ‐O (oxidophenyl) and μ 2 ‐O (oxidophenyl) binding modes.
