Previous studies have identified that indole-oxidases are present in P. putida, whose major ligands are heterocyclic substrates and have an interesting affinity when the substrate is indole. 771-51-7, formula is C10H8N2, Name is 2-(1H-Indol-3-yl)acetonitrile. These enzymes oxidize the ring so the substrate turns into Indigo. Application In Synthesis of 771-51-7.
Wang, Faqin;Bi, Jingting;He, Liwei;Chen, Jing;Zhang, Qiangzi;Hou, Xianbang;Xu, Huiqin research published 《 The indole alkaloids from the roots of Isatidis Radix》, the research content is summarized as follows. The root of Isatis indigotica is used as a traditional Chinese medicine (termed Isatidis Radix) due to its antiviral effects. We examined compounds isolated from Isatidis Radix and elucidated the structures of three new natural alkaloids, and we examined the possible mechanisms or active targets of indole alkaloids occurring in blood of rats treated by gavage. Three new natural products were isolated from Radix Isatidis for the first time, including 1-methoxy-2-indoleacetonitrile, 1-hydroxy-3-indoleacetonitrile, 8-Methoxy-1, 2-dihydroquinoline, and 4 compounds isolated from this medicinal material for the first time. Their structures were elucidated using NMR. The components of Isatidis Radix were analyzed using liquid chromatog. tandem mass spectrometry, and 33 compounds were detected in plasma of treated rats; 24 of these compounds were indole alkaloids, and they included the newly identified compounds Mol. docking and in vitro antithrombin activity tests showed HA inhibition activity of indoleacetonitriles.
Application In Synthesis of 771-51-7, 3-Indoleacetonitrile is a plant growth activator, which promotes callus growth and shoot formation in tobacco callus.
3-Indoleacetonitrile (Indolylacetonitrile) is a light-induced auxin-inhibitory substance that is isolated from light-grown cabbage (Brassica olearea L.) shoots. It inhibits the biofilm formation of both E. coli O157:H7 and P. aeruginosa without affecting its growth.
3-Indoleacetonitrile, also known as 3-(cyanomethyl)indole or IAN, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 3-alkylindoles. 3-alkylindoles are compounds containing an indole moiety that carries an alkyl chain at the 3-position. 3-Indoleacetonitrile exists as a solid and is considered to be practically insoluble (in water) and relatively neutral. Within the cell, 3-indoleacetonitrile is primarily located in the mitochondria. 3-Indoleacetonitrile participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, 3-indoleacetonitrile can be biosynthesized from acetonitrile. 3-Indoleacetonitrile is also a parent compound for other transformation products, including but not limited to, cys(ian)-gly, gammaglucys(ian), and L-cys(ian). Outside of the human body, 3-indoleacetonitrile can be found in a number of food items such as cloudberry, japanese persimmon, horned melon, and evergreen huckleberry. This makes 3-indoleacetonitrile a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Indole-3-acetonitrile is a nitrile that is acetonitrile where one of the methyl hydrogens is substituted by a 1H-indol-3-yl group. It has a role as an auxin, a plant hormone, a plant metabolite and a human xenobiotic metabolite. It is a nitrile and a member of indoles. It derives from an acetonitrile., 771-51-7.
