18. 2 (4 mmol, 99.99%) were mixed and ground with flux (1:3 by weight) in a nitrogen-blanketed drybox. The mixture was heated to 650°C and isothermed for 3 days, followed by slow cooling to 300 °C at 6°C/h and then furnace cooling to room temperature. Crystals (90% based on CuO) were retrieved by washing off the salt with deionized water.

25. The magnetic susceptibility was measured with a Quantum Design SQUID MPMS-5S magnetometer. Selected single crystals were ground and placed in a gel capsule sample holder. The magnetic susceptibility was corrected for the gel capsule and core diamagnetism with Pascal's constants.
