Disodium salts IIa–IId (general procedure). A so-
lution of 5 mmol of Schiff base Ia–Id in 100 ml of
anhydrous methanol was cooled to –30°C, 0.57 g
(15 mmol) of sodium tetrahydridoborate was added,
and the mixture was stirred for 1 h at –30°C and was
allowed to warm up to room temperature. A 2 N solu-
tion of hydrogen chloride in ethanol, 7.5 ml, was
slowly added dropwise, and the mixture was stirred for
1 h and evaporated under reduced pressure. The resi-
due was extracted with anhydrous ethanol, the extract
was filtered and evaporated, and the residue was
treated with diethyl ether. The precipitate was filtered
off, washed with diethyl ether, and dried under reduced
pressure.
