Description

1-Methylindole-3-acetic acid is a biologically active compound that has been used as a medicine. It can be synthesized by the oxidation of 1-methylindole with trifluoroacetic acid and 3-bromopropylamine hydrobromide. The reaction produces a radical species that reacts with dioxetanes to form linear plots. 1-Methylindole-3-acetic acid is also susceptible to light, which leads to the formation of peroxy dioxetanes, amides, and protonated derivatives. The biological relevance is not yet known.
