Rational serendipity: "undirected" synthesis of a large {MnCu} complex from pre-formed MnIIbuilding blocks.
Use of an aminopolyalcohol-based MnIIcomplex in solvothermal CuIIchemistry leads to a rare example of a high nuclearity heterometallic {MnCu} system, in which four CuII(H1Edte) units trap an inner {MnCuII} oxide core.
