    Let \(k\) be a complex quadratic number field of discriminant \(d\), and let \(K\) denote the maximal unramified solvable extension of \(k\). \textit{J. Martinet} [Lond. Math. Soc. Lect. Note Ser. 56, 151-193 (1982; Zbl 0491.12005)] computed the Galois groups of the fields \(K/k\) for \(0 > d > -250\). In this article, the author extends these computations to \(0 > d \geq -420\) (and to \(0 > d \geq -719\) under the assumption of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis) using the same technique as in his previous article [\textit{K. Yamamura}, J. Number Theory 60, 42-50 (1996; Zbl 0865.11077)]. For all these fields, \(K\) coincides with the maximal unramified extension of \(k\); the author conjectures that the smallest non-solvable example occurs for \(d = -1507\). Details will appear elsewhere.
