α-Methyl-1H-indole-5-ethanamine

Description:

α-Methyl-1H-indole-5-ethanamine, also known as 5-Ethyl-α-methylindole, is an organic compound characterized by its indole structure, which consists of a fused benzene and pyrrole ring. This compound features an ethylamine side chain at the 5-position of the indole ring and a methyl group at the α-position. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. The presence of the amine functional group suggests that it may exhibit basic properties and can participate in hydrogen bonding, influencing its solubility in polar solvents. α-Methyl-1H-indole-5-ethanamine may also exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in pharmacological research. Its molecular structure allows for potential interactions with various biological targets, which could lead to applications in medicinal chemistry. However, safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with many organic compounds, due to potential toxicity or reactivity.
