A research group at Nagoya University in Japan has successfully developed an ultrafast and simple synthetic method for producing indole derivatives. Their findings are expected to make drug production ...

A cost-effective copper-catalyzed reaction enables selective modification at the C5 position of the indole ring, a backbone for pharmaceutical compounds Indole, a molecule made up of a six-membered ...

Indole, and structures derived from it, are a component of many natural substances, such as the amino acid tryptophan. A new catalytic reaction produces cyclopenta[b]indoles -- frameworks made of ...

Scientists have cracked one of chemistry’s toughest challenges with indoles, using copper to unlock a spot once thought too stubborn to change. The discovery could pave the way for easier, cheaper ...

Indole, a molecule made up of a six-membered benzene ring fused to a five-membered ring containing nitrogen, forms the core structure of many biologically active compounds. Derivatives of indole, ...

IN the course of paper chromatographic identification of compounds containing phosphorus-32 in different parts of plants the presence of phosphorus compounds with an indole skeleton seemed probable.
