4-Nitroindole is a chemical compound that is used to synthesize 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and also has been used as a substitute for tryptophan in the synthesis of serotonin. It can be prepared by reacting sodium nitrite with an organic acid such as acetic acid or propionic acid. The reaction proceeds through a diazonium salt intermediate, which is hydrolyzed with hydrochloric acid to give 4-nitroindole. 4-Nitroindole can also be prepared by the Friedel-Crafts reaction between an aromatic nitro compound and an alkyl halide. The hydrogen bond between the hydroxyl group and nitrogen atom in the molecule makes it soluble in organic solvents. In addition, the constant boiling point of the compound allows it to be analyzed using gas chromatography.
