1-ethyl-1H-indole-3-carbaldehyde

Description:
1-Ethyl-1H-indole-3-carbaldehyde is an organic compound characterized by its indole structure, which consists of a fused benzene and pyrrole ring. This compound features an ethyl group attached to the nitrogen atom of the indole ring and an aldehyde functional group at the 3-position. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. The presence of the aldehyde group makes it reactive, particularly in condensation reactions and as a potential electrophile in various organic syntheses. Its solubility is generally higher in organic solvents than in water, reflecting its hydrophobic nature due to the indole moiety. 1-Ethyl-1H-indole-3-carbaldehyde may be used in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, as well as in research applications involving indole derivatives. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
