•A review of manganese-based molecular magnets and supramolecular architectures from phenolic oximes.•A review of structural and magnetic properties of manganese-based molecular magnets and supramolecular architectures from phenolic oximes was illustrated.•The reviewing of phenolic oxime ligands illustrates how magnetic interaction changed from antiferromagneticlly to ferromagneticlly and the relations between the structural factors and uniaxial anisotropy interaction.•This review also clarifies that the selection of linkage ligands that enhances the uniaxial anisotropy into SCM behaviors in its supramolecular architectures. Phenolic oximes, which are frequently used as bridging ligands in the construction of molecule-based magnets, have stimulated considerable interest in magnetochemistry. This tutorial review is concentrated on manganese-based phenolic oximes systems and related magnetochemistry and consists of five main sections. The first section offers an introduction to Mn-based phenolic oxime complexes and some important results obtained from magneto-structural correlations in phenolic oximes compounds which will be discussed in the following sections. The next three sections provide overviews of phenolic oximes-mediated Mn compounds from zero-dimension to one-, two- and three-dimensional supramolecular architectures and their unusual magnetic properties including SMM and SCM behavior. The last section contains concluding remarks and provides perspectives for the future of phenolic oximes-mediated compounds.
