Pandas version checks

  • I have checked that this issue has not already been reported.

  • I have confirmed this bug exists on the latest version of pandas.

  • I have confirmed this bug exists on the main branch of pandas.

Reproducible Example

import pandas as pd

left = pd.DatetimeIndex(['2021-12-11 01:05:00'], dtype='datetime64[us]', freq='5min')
right = pd.DatetimeIndex(['2021-12-11 01:05:00', '2021-12-11 01:10:00'], dtype='datetime64[us]', freq='5min')

left.union(right)

Issue Description

Ouput of the example is:

DatetimeIndex(['2021-12-11 01:05:00', '2021-12-14 12:25:00'], dtype='datetime64[us]', freq='5min')

'2021-12-14 12:25:00' doesn't exists in input indices.

The bug doesn't appear if nanoseconds are used as dtype or if at least one frequency is not specified.

Expected Behavior

output should be:

DatetimeIndex(['2021-12-11 01:05:00', '2021-12-11 01:10:00'], dtype='datetime64[us]', freq='5min')

or

DatetimeIndex(['2021-12-11 01:05:00', '2021-12-11 01:10:00'], dtype='datetime64[us]', freq=None)
