4-Aminoindole may be used to synthesize:
- macrolactam tumour promoter indolactam V
- tricyclic structure of 2-substituted-pyrrolo[2,3-h]quinolin-4-one
- 4-azidoindole
ChEBI: 4-Aminoindole is a member of indoles.
4-Aminoindole is an indole derivative. Its cytokinin activity has been assessed by tobacco pith callus bioassay. 4-Aminoindole can be prepared by reacting 2,6-dinitrotoluene and N,N-dimethylformamide dimethylacetal in anhydrous DMF.
