Solvothermal reaction assisted with microwave leads to the formation of two unique heterometallic cubic clusters [Ni{sub 3}M'(L){sub 3}(OH)(CH{sub 3}CN){sub 3}]{sub 2}.CH{sub 3}CN (M'=K for 1 and M'=Na for 2, where L is an anion of 2-[(2-hydroxy-3-methoxy-benzylidene)-amino]-ethanesulfonate) with higher efficiency, yields and purity than those without it. The 6-metallacrown-3 [Ni{sub 3}(OH)(L){sub 3}]{sup -} groups exhibit interesting ion trapping and self-assembly of size-different Na{sup +} and K{sup +} through form recognition and coordination activity in 1 and 2. The magnetic studies for 1 and 2 suggest that the {l_brace}Ni{sub 3}M'O{sub 4}{r_brace} (M'=K and Na) cores both display dominant ferromagnetic interactions from the nature of the binding modes of mu{sub 3}-O (oxidophenyl) and mu{sub 3}-OH. - Graphical abstract: Solvothermal reaction assisted with microwave leads to two heterometallic cubic clusters with 6-metallacrown-3 structure [Ni{sub 3}O{sub 3}(OH)]{sup -} acting as a host for a K{sup +} or Na{sup +} ion. The {l_brace}Ni{sub 3}M'O{sub 4}{r_brace} (M'=K, Na) cores display dominant ferromagnetic interactions.
