4-Methoxyindole

Description:

4-Methoxyindole is an organic compound characterized by its indole structure, which consists of a fused benzene and pyrrole ring, with a methoxy group (-OCH3) attached to the fourth position of the indole ring. This compound is typically a white to light yellow crystalline solid and is known for its aromatic properties. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and chloroform but has limited solubility in water. 4-Methoxyindole is of interest in various fields, including medicinal chemistry and biochemistry, due to its potential biological activities, including antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It may also serve as a building block in the synthesis of more complex molecules. The compound's reactivity is influenced by the presence of the methoxy group, which can participate in electrophilic substitution reactions. As with many indole derivatives, 4-methoxyindole may exhibit fluorescence, making it useful in certain analytical applications. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with all chemical substances.
