Based on the reported Fe clusters constructed by using N-tris(hydroxymethyl)methylglycine (H₅thmmg), herein, we explored the use of H₅thmmg for Ni chemistry. Successfully, an octanuclear Ni cluster, Ni₈O(H₃thmmg)₆·2NO₃ (Ni₈) was acquired under solvothermal condition. Its metallic core is comprised of two centrosymmetric cubanes Ni₄(µ₃-O)₃(µ₆-O) linked by sharing an O²⁻ ion and six H₃thmmg²⁻ ligands are attached to the periphery. Interestingly, the 2-mercapto-5-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole (Hmat) ligand with both N and S donor atoms was introduced into the synthesis of Ni₈ cluster, a disparate decanuclear nickel cluster, Ni₁₀O(OH)₂(H₃thmmg)₄(mat)₈ (Ni₁₀) is assembled by H₃thmmg²⁻ and mat⁻ mixed ligands. The metal core of Ni₁₀ cluster is a pudgy tetrahedron, whose four vertexes are four Ni²⁺ ions and the remanent six Ni²⁺ ions are located in the tetrahedral cavity. Four H₃thmmg²⁻ ligands are located at the four vertices of the tetrahedron and 8 mat⁻ ligands are all on the six sides of the tetrahedron. The different synthetic conditions contribute to the different configurations. Magnetic studies indicate that both complexes Ni₈ and Ni₁₀ display antiferromagnetic interactions.
