title: A carborane-incorporated mononuclear Co(ii) complex showing zero-field slow magnetic relaxation.
abstract: An air-stable mononuclear Co(ii) complex bearing an o-carborane dithiolate ligand has been synthesized which shows slow relaxation of magnetization in the absence of an applied field and a hysteresis loop at 1.8 K. This is the first example of a carborane-incorporated complex that displays SMM properties.
