The C-13 chemical shifts of eight series of para- or meta-substituted benzaldehyde 2-aminobenzoylhydrazones possessing both amide and imine functionalities were measured. The C-13 chemical shifts were used to study the transmission of electronic substituent effects along the heteroaromatic side-chain of the substituted aromatic ring, In addition to the C=N bond, the benzoylhydrazones possess in their side-chain polarizable C=O and phenyl pi-units. The benzylidenic ring-substituent chemical shifts were analysed by the dual substituent parameter approach to separate the inductive and resonance effects, The negative p(I) and p(R) values observed (i.e. reverse substituent effects) indicate a significant pi-polarization of the C=N bond, The highly negative p(R) values, especially those in the case of meta substitution, suggest a contribution from a marked secondary field-transmitted resonance effect, The results are compared with those obtained for other hydrazones or imines. Variation of the electron-withdrawing ability of the N-2 substituent is seen to have a systematic effect on the p(I) values. Reverse substituent effects are also observed at the C-1'' site of the 2-aminobenzoyl ring while C-4'' shifts show normal behaviour, consistent with the general concept of the pi-polarization that each pi-unit of the side-chain is polarized largely as a localized system, Accordingly, the pi-polarization effect is seen efficiently to propagate also along a heteroaromatic chain, On the other hand, the C=O sites exhibit normal, although fairly slight, dependence on the benzylidenic substituent indicating an insignificant role of pi-polarization at that site. The effects of the solvent, CDCI3 vs. DMSO-d(6), on the p(I) and p(R) values are also considered.
