Beschreibung

5-Hydroxy-2-methylindole is a product that transfers serotonin and melatonin, which are neurotransmitters. It can be used in animal studies to investigate the effects on cancer cells and its potential as an anti-cancer agent. 5-Hydroxy-2-methylindole can also be used to stabilize nitro compounds, such as TNT and RDX, by inhibiting the oxidation of these substances. This compound has been shown to have antiviral properties against HIV and HSV and may also have potentials for treating Alzheimer's disease. 5-Hydroxy-2-methylindole is synthesized by reacting indole with hydrogen peroxide in the presence of a halogeno (e.g., chlorine) or ferrous salts. The reaction rate of this synthesis depends on the concentrations of these reactants.
