1-methyl-1H-indole-4-carboxylic acid

Description:
1-Methyl-1H-indole-4-carboxylic acid is an organic compound characterized by its indole structure, which consists of a fused benzene and pyrrole ring. This compound features a carboxylic acid functional group (-COOH) at the 4-position and a methyl group (-CH3) at the 1-position of the indole ring. It is typically a white to off-white solid, soluble in polar solvents such as water and alcohols, due to the presence of the carboxylic acid group. The compound exhibits acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including esterification and amidation. Its indole framework is significant in medicinal chemistry, as indole derivatives are known for their biological activities, including anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. The compound may also serve as an intermediate in the synthesis of more complex molecules in pharmaceutical research. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
