5-hydroxy-3-methyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-indol-2-one

Description:
5-Hydroxy-3-methyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-indol-2-one, also known as tryptophol, is an indole derivative characterized by its bicyclic structure, which includes a fused benzene and pyrrole ring. This compound features a hydroxyl group (-OH) and a methyl group (-CH3) that contribute to its chemical properties. It is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and methanol, but has limited solubility in water. Tryptophol is known for its role in biological systems, particularly as a product of tryptophan metabolism, and has been studied for its potential effects on sleep and mood regulation. Additionally, it exhibits antioxidant properties and may have implications in various biochemical pathways. Its molecular structure allows for interactions with various biological receptors, making it of interest in pharmacological research. As with many organic compounds, it should be handled with care, following appropriate safety protocols in laboratory settings.
