In the title compound, C(15)H(12)INO(2)S, the sulfonyl-bound phenyl ring forms a dihedral angle 82.84 (9)° with the indole ring system. The mol-ecular structure is stabilized by a weak intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bond. The crystal structure exhibits weak inter-molecular C-H⋯π inter-actions and π-π inter-actions between the indole groups [centroid-centroid distance between the five-membered a...

An enzyme which catalyzes the conversion of L-tryptophan to indole-3-acetamide has been isolated from cells of Pseudomonas savastanoi and purified 89-fold. The enzyme catalyzes a reaction in which 1 mole of L-tryptophan and 1 mole of 02 are consumed and 1 mole of indole-3-acetamide and 1 mole of CO2 are produced. The enzyme has a pH optimum between 7.2 and 9.2. It is specific for the L isomer o...

A culture method was applied as factorial experiment based on completely randomized design using Filip 96-9L genotype of lentil + 0.25 mg L Indole butyric acid + different salt levels. Another was done to 1 identify the impact of the different hormone levels on Filip 92-12L genotype including: 0.9 mg L Indole acetic 1 acid + 0.2 mg L Kinetin, 1 and 2 mg L Indole acetic acid + 0.25 and 0.5 mg L ...

By JERRY DREXLER A DEFINITE RELATIONSHIP has never been established between indole metabolism and the megoloblastic anemias. Rhoads and associates”2 were able to produce a hemolytic-like anemia with many features of pernicious anemia, in dogs on vitamin B deficient diets, by the oral administration of pure indole. Interestingly, the relief of this anemia by oral feeding of liver extract was acc...

BACKGROUND Despite the well recognized protective effect of cruciferous vegetables against various cancers, including human colorectal cancers, little is known about how this effect is conferred. It is thought that some phytochemicals found only in these vegetables confer the protection. These compounds include the glucosinolates, of which indole-3-carbinol is one. They are known to induce carc...

PtCl2 effectively catalyzes the multistep reaction of N-methyl indole (1 a) with pent-3-yn-1-ol (2 a) in THF at room temperature for 2 h to give indole derivative 3 a, which contains a five-membered cyclic ether group at C3 in 93% yield. Under similar reaction conditions, various substituted N-methyl indoles 1 b-h and indole (1 i) reacted efficiently with 2 a to afford the corresponding indole ...

Arthrobacter pascens ZZ21 is a plant-beneficial, fluoranthene-degrading bacterial strain found in the rhizosphere. The production of the phytohormone indole-3-aectic acid (IAA) by ZZ21 is thought to contribute to its ability to promote plant growth and remediate fluoranthene-contaminated soil. Using genome-wide analysis combined with metabolomic and high-performance liquid chromatography-mass s...

Glucosinolates (GLS) are a group of plant secondary metabolites mainly found in Cruciferous plants, share a core structure consisting of a β-thioglucose moiety and a sulfonated oxime, but differ by a variable side chain derived from one of the several amino acids. These compounds are hydrolyzed upon cell damage by thioglucosidase (myrosinase), and the resulting degradation products are toxic to...

A flexible analytical system which allows for the continuous potentiometric monitoring of the disappearance of an electrochemical species, ferrocyanide, by the peroxidase enzyme is described. The ability of peroxidase to mediate the oxidation of indole-3-acetic acid is followed by observing the competition of indole-3-acetic acid with ferrocyanide for the peroxidase enzyme. This is accomplished...
