1 Introduction

Isatin imines including Schiff bases 1b and isatin hydrazones2 which are the product of condensation of amines orhydrazines with isatins 1a respectively are considered as apharmacophore for diverse spectrum of biological activities[1ndash5] (Figure 1) They have been reported as anticanceragents where they were found to be inhibitors of tyrosinephosphatase Shp2 [6] Furthermore they have been identifiedas kinase inhibitors and they also have been reported as cyto-toxic agents towards U937 lymphoma cells [7] In additionhydrazones 2 (R = ndashCOAr) revealed a good cytotoxic activityagainst K562 MDA-MB-468 and HT-29 cell lines [8]

Isatin-based azines 4 are usually prepared by the con-densation of isatin hydrazones 2 (R1 = H) with aldehydes orketones 3 to construct the connectivitygtC=NndashN=CR2R3 andthen the formation of isatin aldazines (4 R2 or R3 = H) orisatin ketazines (4 R2 and R3 = H) respectively (Figure 1)Isatin aldazines 4 showed a significant anticancer activityagainst human breast cell line MCF-7 [9] whereas a seriesof symmetrical and asymmetrical isatin ketazines 5 showed aselective activity against multidrug-resistant cancer cells [10]Moreover bis-Schiff bases of isatins 4 represent significantantiglycation activity [11]

On the other hand azines undergo hydrolysis to regen-erate the hydrazine and aldehydes or ketones Howeverketazines are important intermediates in the production ofhydrazine hydrate when subjected to hydrolysis processes[12] In addition the reaction of azines with hydrazine(hydrazinolysis) regenerates the hydrazones [13] In lightof the latter results and in continuation of our interestin the chemistry of isatin-based azines 4 and 5 we hopeto report herein the unexpected results of hydrolysis andhydrazinolysis of isatin aldazines 4andashd and isatin ketazines5

3 Results and Discussion

In the reaction of 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2) (R = H)with aldehydes 3andashd in glacial acetic acid for 12 h at ambienttemperature isatin aldazines 4andashd were isolated extensivelyThe targeted aldazines 4andashd were also prepared by thereaction of 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2) with aldehydes 3andashd in refluxing ethanol in the presence of catalytic amount ofglacial acetic acid for 6 h (Scheme 1) [9]

Hydrolysis of hydrazones 4andashd by their refluxing inH2OAcOH afforded reddish precipitates during reflux in

each case These precipitates showed identical physical andchemical properties and they are not matched with theexpected hydrazone 2 (R = H) (Scheme 1)

The 1H NMR spectrum of the isolated precipitate didnot show the characteristic signal of NH

Scheme 3 Hydrazinolysis of 331015840-(hydrazine-12-diylidene)bis(indolin-2-one) (5)

nitrogen of hydrazone function attacked the acidic protonfollowed by hydrolysis to give intermediates 12(andashd)ndash15(andashd) respectively yielded indoline-23-dione (1) and the cor-responding hydrazones 17andashd without further hydrolysisFinally the reaction of 1a with 2 (R = H) and 3andashd with 17andashd led to the formation of final products 331015840-(hydrazine-12-diylidene)bis(indolin-2-one) (5) and aldazines 6andashd respec-tivelyThe expected last step is hydrolysis of 2 (R = H) andor17andashd

According to the previous results and in light of behaviorof hydrazine hydrate towards certain ndashN=Nndash containingcompounds [12] we stimulated to explore the reactivity ofhydrazine hydrate towards ndashN=Cndash function in aldazines 4andashd Thus the reaction of 4andashd with hydrazine hydrate inrefluxing ethanol afforded 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2) and12-di(arylidene)hydrazines 6andashd respectively instead of 2and 17andashd (Scheme 2)

Hydrazine as a nucleophile attacked the carbon ofndashN=Cndash function of two molecules of hydrazones 4andashdto form the nonisolable intermediates 18andashd and 19andashdrespectively (Scheme 3) Finally the nonisolable intermedi-ate 19andashd afforded 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2) and 12-di(arylidene)hydrazines 6andashd as final isolated compounds

Consequently the reaction of hydrazine hydrate withC-3 of 331015840-(hydrazine-12-diylidene)bis(indolin-2-one) (5)yielded the corresponding 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2) as

hydrazinolysis product (Scheme 3) The previous reactionproceeded through the attack of nucleophilic nitrogen ofhydrazine on ketazine 5 to form the nonisolable intermediate21 and then the formation of 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2)

4 Conclusion

In conclusion we reported herein the hydrolysis of isatinaldazines 4andashd which gave unusual product 331015840-(hydrazine-12-diylidene)bis(indolin-2-one) (5) and aldazines 6andashdwereformed through dual acidic hydrolysis The hydrazinolysisof isatin aldazines 4andashd yielded 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one(2) and 6andashd instead of 17andashd These results established theability of the title compounds for unusual hydrolysis andhydrazinolysis reactions

3 Results and Discussion

In the reaction of 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2) (R = H)with aldehydes 3andashd in glacial acetic acid for 12 h at ambienttemperature isatin aldazines 4andashd were isolated extensivelyThe targeted aldazines 4andashd were also prepared by thereaction of 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2) with aldehydes 3andashd in refluxing ethanol in the presence of catalytic amount ofglacial acetic acid for 6 h (Scheme 1) [9]

Hydrolysis of hydrazones 4andashd by their refluxing inH2OAcOH afforded reddish precipitates during reflux in

each case These precipitates showed identical physical andchemical properties and they are not matched with theexpected hydrazone 2 (R = H) (Scheme 1)

The 1H NMR spectrum of the isolated precipitate didnot show the characteristic signal of NH

2of 2 and its mass

nitrogen of hydrazone function attacked the acidic protonfollowed by hydrolysis to give intermediates 12(andashd)ndash15(andashd) respectively yielded indoline-23-dione (1) and the cor-responding hydrazones 17andashd without further hydrolysisFinally the reaction of 1a with 2 (R = H) and 3andashd with 17andashd led to the formation of final products 331015840-(hydrazine-12-diylidene)bis(indolin-2-one) (5) and aldazines 6andashd respec-tivelyThe expected last step is hydrolysis of 2 (R = H) andor17andashd

According to the previous results and in light of behaviorof hydrazine hydrate towards certain ndashN=Nndash containingcompounds [12] we stimulated to explore the reactivity ofhydrazine hydrate towards ndashN=Cndash function in aldazines 4andashd Thus the reaction of 4andashd with hydrazine hydrate inrefluxing ethanol afforded 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2) and12-di(arylidene)hydrazines 6andashd respectively instead of 2and 17andashd (Scheme 2)

Hydrazine as a nucleophile attacked the carbon ofndashN=Cndash function of two molecules of hydrazones 4andashdto form the nonisolable intermediates 18andashd and 19andashdrespectively (Scheme 3) Finally the nonisolable intermedi-ate 19andashd afforded 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2) and 12-di(arylidene)hydrazines 6andashd as final isolated compounds

Consequently the reaction of hydrazine hydrate withC-3 of 331015840-(hydrazine-12-diylidene)bis(indolin-2-one) (5)yielded the corresponding 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2) as

hydrazinolysis product (Scheme 3) The previous reactionproceeded through the attack of nucleophilic nitrogen ofhydrazine on ketazine 5 to form the nonisolable intermediate21 and then the formation of 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2)

4 Conclusion

In conclusion we reported herein the hydrolysis of isatinaldazines 4andashd which gave unusual product 331015840-(hydrazine-12-diylidene)bis(indolin-2-one) (5) and aldazines 6andashdwereformed through dual acidic hydrolysis The hydrazinolysisof isatin aldazines 4andashd yielded 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one(2) and 6andashd instead of 17andashd These results established theability of the title compounds for unusual hydrolysis andhydrazinolysis reactions

3 Results and Discussion

In the reaction of 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2) (R = H)with aldehydes 3andashd in glacial acetic acid for 12 h at ambienttemperature isatin aldazines 4andashd were isolated extensivelyThe targeted aldazines 4andashd were also prepared by thereaction of 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2) with aldehydes 3andashd in refluxing ethanol in the presence of catalytic amount ofglacial acetic acid for 6 h (Scheme 1) [9]

Hydrolysis of hydrazones 4andashd by their refluxing inH2OAcOH afforded reddish precipitates during reflux in

each case These precipitates showed identical physical andchemical properties and they are not matched with theexpected hydrazone 2 (R = H) (Scheme 1)

The 1H NMR spectrum of the isolated precipitate didnot show the characteristic signal of NH

After evaporation of the filtrates of the latter reactionsthey gave in each case a compound with melting points97∘C (Ar = Ph) 213∘C (Ar = 4-Cl-C

6H4) 172∘C (Ar =

4-MeO-C6H4) and 225∘C (Ar = 4-NO

2-C6H4) respec-

tively These values do not match this reported for 2 217ndash219∘C Our attempts to explore these unknown compoundsguided us to assign structure 12-di(arylidene)hydrazines 6andashd for the isolated compounds We found that the analyticaldata of authentic samples of isolated compounds is iden-tical with those of 6andashd [17ndash20] Interestingly refluxing

2 with aldehydes 3andashd in H2OAcOH 331015840-(hydrazine-12-

Keeping in mind the reported data about the mech-anism of hydrolysis of ndashC=Nndash imines [21] we are inter-ested in proposing a mechanism to explain the formationof 331015840-(hydrazine-12-diylidene)bis(indolin-2-one) (5) and12-di(arylidene)hydrazines 6andashd In this mechanism dualacidic hydrolysis of aldazines 4andashd took place in their twonucleophilic centers which are accessible to attack by twoprotons from the acidicmedium (Figure 2)The first pathwayin which acidic proton attack took place by the nitrogenof ndashN=CndashAr followed by hydrolysis to give intermediates7(andashd)ndash10(andashd) respectively yielded aldehydes 3andashd and3-hydrazonoindolin-2-ones (2) which would not undergofurther hydrolysis The second pathway in which the other

nitrogen of hydrazone function attacked the acidic protonfollowed by hydrolysis to give intermediates 12(andashd)ndash15(andashd) respectively yielded indoline-23-dione (1) and the cor-responding hydrazones 17andashd without further hydrolysisFinally the reaction of 1a with 2 (R = H) and 3andashd with 17andashd led to the formation of final products 331015840-(hydrazine-12-diylidene)bis(indolin-2-one) (5) and aldazines 6andashd respec-tivelyThe expected last step is hydrolysis of 2 (R = H) andor17andashd

According to the previous results and in light of behaviorof hydrazine hydrate towards certain ndashN=Nndash containingcompounds [12] we stimulated to explore the reactivity ofhydrazine hydrate towards ndashN=Cndash function in aldazines 4andashd Thus the reaction of 4andashd with hydrazine hydrate inrefluxing ethanol afforded 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2) and12-di(arylidene)hydrazines 6andashd respectively instead of 2and 17andashd (Scheme 2)

Hydrazine as a nucleophile attacked the carbon ofndashN=Cndash function of two molecules of hydrazones 4andashdto form the nonisolable intermediates 18andashd and 19andashdrespectively (Scheme 3) Finally the nonisolable intermedi-ate 19andashd afforded 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2) and 12-di(arylidene)hydrazines 6andashd as final isolated compounds

Consequently the reaction of hydrazine hydrate withC-3 of 331015840-(hydrazine-12-diylidene)bis(indolin-2-one) (5)yielded the corresponding 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2) as

hydrazinolysis product (Scheme 3) The previous reactionproceeded through the attack of nucleophilic nitrogen ofhydrazine on ketazine 5 to form the nonisolable intermediate21 and then the formation of 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one (2)

4 Conclusion

In conclusion we reported herein the hydrolysis of isatinaldazines 4andashd which gave unusual product 331015840-(hydrazine-12-diylidene)bis(indolin-2-one) (5) and aldazines 6andashdwereformed through dual acidic hydrolysis The hydrazinolysisof isatin aldazines 4andashd yielded 3-hydrazonoindolin-2-one(2) and 6andashd instead of 17andashd These results established theability of the title compounds for unusual hydrolysis andhydrazinolysis reactions
