A solution of the appropriate hydrated metal acetate salt
(1.0 mmol) in ethanol was added to a hot ethanolic solution of
the Schiff base (0.65 g, 2.0 mmol). The mixture was refluxed for
30 min and then cooled to room temperature. The complex that
separated out was filtered off, washed with ethanol and dried over
silica gel.
