The acid hydrazides (I and IV) were condensed with indole-2,3-dione in ethanol to yield hydrazono-indolin-2-ones (II and V) which on aminomethylation with formaldehyde and different amines furnished 1-(substituted aminomethyl)hydrazono-indolin-2-ones (IIIa-e and VIa-e). The structures of the newly synthesized compounds have been confirmed by IR, 1H NMR and Mass spectra. These compounds have shown promising biological activity.
