Indole, also called Benzopyrrole, a heterocyclic organic compound occurring in some flower oils, such as jasmine and orange blossom, in coal tar, and in fecal matter. 771-51-7, formula is C10H8N2, Name is 2-(1H-Indol-3-yl)acetonitrile. It is used in perfumery and in making tryptophan, an essential amino acid, and indoleacetic acid (heteroauxin), a hormone that promotes the development of roots in plant cuttings. Recommanded Product: 2-(1H-Indol-3-yl)acetonitrile.
Revelou, Panagiota-Kyriaki;Kokotou, Maroula G.;Constantinou-Kokotou, Violetta research published 《 Determination of indole-type phytonutrients in cruciferous vegetables》, the research content is summarized as follows. Consumption of cruciferous vegetables has been associated with a low risk of developing cancer. Indole-type phytonutrients, derived from enzymic hydrolysis of glucobrassicin, exhibit cancer-preventive properties and occur in all vegetables of the Brassicaceae family. A LC-Q-TOF-MS methodol. was developed and applied in extracts from seven cruciferous vegetables allowing the rapid determination of indole-3-carbinol, indole-3-carbaldehyde, ascorbigen, indole-3-acetic acid and indole-3-acetonitrile. The novel method described herein, was validated and is characterized by low detection limits and excellent linearity. The simultaneous determination of indole-type phytonutrients in turnip and radish was performed for the first time.
771-51-7, 3-Indoleacetonitrile is a plant growth activator, which promotes callus growth and shoot formation in tobacco callus.
3-Indoleacetonitrile (Indolylacetonitrile) is a light-induced auxin-inhibitory substance that is isolated from light-grown cabbage (Brassica olearea L.) shoots. It inhibits the biofilm formation of both E. coli O157:H7 and P. aeruginosa without affecting its growth.
3-Indoleacetonitrile, also known as 3-(cyanomethyl)indole or IAN, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 3-alkylindoles. 3-alkylindoles are compounds containing an indole moiety that carries an alkyl chain at the 3-position. 3-Indoleacetonitrile exists as a solid and is considered to be practically insoluble (in water) and relatively neutral. Within the cell, 3-indoleacetonitrile is primarily located in the mitochondria. 3-Indoleacetonitrile participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, 3-indoleacetonitrile can be biosynthesized from acetonitrile. 3-Indoleacetonitrile is also a parent compound for other transformation products, including but not limited to, cys(ian)-gly, gammaglucys(ian), and L-cys(ian). Outside of the human body, 3-indoleacetonitrile can be found in a number of food items such as cloudberry, japanese persimmon, horned melon, and evergreen huckleberry. This makes 3-indoleacetonitrile a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Indole-3-acetonitrile is a nitrile that is acetonitrile where one of the methyl hydrogens is substituted by a 1H-indol-3-yl group. It has a role as an auxin, a plant hormone, a plant metabolite and a human xenobiotic metabolite. It is a nitrile and a member of indoles. It derives from an acetonitrile., Recommanded Product: 2-(1H-Indol-3-yl)acetonitrile
