Chirality and Solvent Coassist the Structural Evolution of Hybrid Manganese Chlorides with Second-Harmonic-Generation Response

Chiral hybrid metal halides have shown great potential in optoelectronics, including for spin splitting, circularly polarized luminescence, and nonlinear-optical properties. However, despite their inherent inversion symmetry breaking, studies on second harmonic generation (SHG) of chiral hybrid manganese(II) halides remain relatively rare. Here, we report a series of structurally diverse hybrid manganese(II) chlorides: (Rac-MBA)
