Hydrothermal synthesis: stainless steel reactor (25 mL volume; Teflon-lined), MCl2 (0.2 mmol), H2O (10 mL), 3 days at 160 °C, 10 °C h−1 cooling rate.
AL, N-donor auxiliary ligand. The oxidation state of the metals in compounds 1–5 was determined by the values of magnetic moment (Fig. S3 and Table S3).
