Beschreibung

5-Benzyloxytryptophol is a natural product that belongs to the indole compounds group. It is isolated from the pineal gland of cows and has been shown to be a potent serotonin receptor agonist, which may lead to its use in the treatment of sleep disorders. The structure of 5-Benzyloxytryptophol has been determined by spectroscopic data and X-ray crystallography. The molecule is homodimeric, with each monomer consisting of an indole ring fused to a benzene ring. The molecule also exhibits structural similarity with melatonin and 5-methoxytryptophol, which are also found in the pineal gland.
